Due to the ongoing effects of COVID-19  travelling today comes with more challenges than in the past. Make a note of these useful tips before boarding your flight to Southern Black Forest:
  • Investigate if any restrictions apply to both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so make sure you check before you lock something in.
  • Requirements state you must wear a face mask at the airport, even at screening checkpoints. Be ready to lower your mask to verify your identity when asked.
  • To reduce the risk of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer.
  • One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now allowed in your carry-on bag. It must be no bigger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to take it out of your bag at the X-ray machine for scanning.
  • Remove personal items from your pockets, such as your small change and phone, and place them in your carry-on rather than the bins. This will reduce handling during the screening process.
  • Separate any food you have for X-ray scanning. Food items often trigger the alarm. Putting them in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA officer to touch and inspect your belongings.
