Cap Cana Vacations

The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed how the world works in endless ways, including how and where we travel. These tips will help you understand these new challenges and prepare you for your trip to Cap Cana:

• Research what, if any, restrictions or rules apply to both your origin and destination. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so check before you lock something in.
• Keep your face mask on during airport screening. A TSA officer will require you to adjust your mask for identification purposes.
• You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA employee. Rather, position the pass on the scanner and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it.
• TSA is now allowing passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on baggage. This will need to be removed from your bag for X-ray scanning.
• To reduce handling during the screening process, place personal items such as your keys, wallet, phone and belt into your carry-on rather than into the bins.
• If you're planning to take food on the plane, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA officer will need to handle your carry-on bag or food container for inspection.

To help minimize contact between passengers and cabin crew during the current pandemic, most reputable airlines have taken social distancing and other strategies to the skies. An example of these are:

• American Airlines - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and cleaning with disinfectant.
• JetBlue - this airline is known for keeping the middle seat empty and capped capacity flights.
• United Airlines - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and cleaning with disinfectant.
