What are some of the general tips for travellers to Sulawesi during the COVID-19 outbreak?
If it's your first time travelling during COVID-19  you'll notice plenty of new restrictions and standards in place. Take note of these tips and make your escape to Sulawesi go off without a hitch:
  • Know the restrictions and rules in both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so remember to check before you book your flight.
  • Wear a face mask even during airport screening. A TSA employee will require you to temporarily lower your mask to verify your identity.
  • Avoid handing your boarding pass (electronic or paper) directly to a TSA officer. Instead, position the pass on the scanner and then hold it up to allow the agent to visually inspect it.
  • You're allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on luggage. You'll have to remove it for X-ray scanning.
  • Place any personal items (phone, keys and wallet) in your carry-on instead of a bin to minimize handling during screening.
  • Separate any food you're carrying for X-ray scanning. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA officer to handle and inspect your belongings.
