The COVID-19 outbreak has changed the way we travel, but it hasn't dampened our zest for exploring. Here are a few tips on how to tackle the new challenges of traveling:

• Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking your flight. Also check if there are any requirements you'll need to follow on arrival, such as taking a COVID-19 test.
• When you pass through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be required to briefly lower it to verify your identity. Travelers who refuse to wear a mask may be denied entry or boarding.
• Instead of handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, position it directly on the reader yourself. Once that's done, hold it up for inspection.
• You can take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on baggage. This will need to be taken out for screening.
• Empty everything from your pockets, like your phone, keys and wallet, and put them in your carry-on rather than the bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
• 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.

To minimize contact between travelers and flight crew during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, most reputable airlines have taken social distancing and other measures to the skies. A great example of these are:

• KLM - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and cleaning with disinfectant.
• Transavia - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and cleaning with disinfectant.
• EasyJet - this airline is known for cleaning with disinfectant and providing passenger masks.
