What are some of the general tips for travellers to Phillip Island during the COVID-19 outbreak?

COVID-19 has brought about substantial changes to the way we travel. If you're planning an escape to Phillip Island, these tips will help you navigate these new challenges: Before booking your flight, check if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Get up-to-date information by reviewing government and airport websites. Keep your face mask on even during airport screening. A TSA employee will ask you to temporarily lower your mask for ID purposes. You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass (electronic or paper) directly to a TSA employee. Instead, position the pass on the scanner and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it. TSA now allows passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on bags. This will have to be removed from your bag to be screened. Put any personal items (e.g, wallet, keys and phone) in your carry-on instead of a bin to minimize handling during the screening process. Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Keeping your food separate from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA agent will need to touch and open your bag for inspection.
