If it's your first time travelling during the COVID-19 pandemic, you'll notice new rules and regulations in place. Take note of these tips and make your trip to Reberty 1850 go off without a hitch:

• Understand the rules and restrictions in both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so make sure you check before you book.
• When you pass through airport checkpoints, do not remove your face mask. You will be asked to briefly lower it for ID purposes. Anyone refusing to wear a face mask may be fined and denied entry.
• To avoid cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA officer.
• You are now permitted to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your hand luggage. This will need to be removed for screening.
• To minimize handling during the screening process, place personal items such as your phone and loose change into your carry-on rather than the bins.
• Separate any food you have for X-ray screening. Placing it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to touch and inspect your belongings.
