If it’s your first time traveling during the COVID-19 outbreak, you’ll notice plenty of new standards and rules in place. Take note of these tips and make your trip to San Pedro Mixtepec a smooth one:
- Before committing to anything, find out if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your origin and destination. Keep informed with the latest updates by checking government travel advisories.
- Requirements state that you must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, including at screening checkpoints. You should be prepared to adjust your mask to verify your identity when asked by a TSA officer.
- To reduce the potential of cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA employee.
- One liquid hand sanitizer container is now permitted in your carry-on baggage. It must be no bigger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you’ll need to remove it from your bag for scanning.
- Put any personal items (e.g, keys, phone and coins) in your carry-on rather than a bin to reduce handling during screening.
- Transport your food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Separating food from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA officer will need to open and touch your bag for inspection.
