Snead Island Holidays

The COVID-19 pandemic has changed how the world works in ways big and small, including how we're able to safely travel. The following tips will help you understand these new challenges and prepare you for your holiday in Snead Island:

• Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before locking in a flight. Also check if there are any special conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as testing and quarantining.
• When you go through airport screening, do not remove your face mask. You will be asked to lower it briefly to verify your identity. Those who refuse to wear a mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the terminal.
• To minimize the risk of 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 agent.
• You're permitted to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on bag. This will need to be removed for X-ray scanning.
• Empty everything from your pockets, such as your keys, phone and wallet, and put them in your carry-on instead of into bins. This will minimize handling during the screening process.
• If you're bringing food on board, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to touch your food container or carry-on bag for closer inspection.
