Paroisse Saint-Barnabé Holidays

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in major changes to the way we travel. If you're planning a holiday in Paroisse Saint-Barnabé, the following tips will help you navigate these new challenges and rules:

• Before locking in your flight, check if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your origin and destination. Get the latest updates by reviewing official government websites.
• Keep your face mask on during airport screening. A TSA officer will ask you to adjust your mask for identification purposes.
• Avoid handing your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Instead, you should position the pass on the reader and then hold it up for inspection.
• One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now permitted in your carry-on baggage. It must be no bigger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to take it out of your bag for scanning.
• To reduce handling during screening, put items such as your belt, phone and wallet into your carry-on rather than the bins.
• If you're taking food on the plane with you, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA officer will need to handle your food container or carry-on bag for closer inspection.

Take to the airways now and you're likely to notice a few differences. For instance, most reputable carriers have introduced social distancing and improved hygiene standards. Some good examples are:

• Ryanair - this airline is known for cleaning with disinfectant and providing passenger masks.
• Air Corsica - this airline is known for conducting passenger temperature checks and providing passenger masks.
