Orinoquía Vacations

COVID-19 has led to substantial changes to the way we travel. If you plan to visit Orinoquia, these tips will help you navigate these new traveling challenges:

• Before you lock in a flight, check if any travel restrictions or bans apply — in both your origin and destination. Get the latest updates by checking government and airport websites.
• You must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, even at screening checkpoints. You should be prepared to adjust your mask to verify your identity when asked by a TSA employee.
• To reduce the likelihood of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA officer.
• TSA is now allowing passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on luggage. This will have to be removed from your bag for X-ray screening.
• Place any personal items (e.g, keys, phone and wallet) in your carry-on instead of a bin to minimize handling during screening.
• Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also place them in a screening bin. Keeping your food separate from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA officer will need to open and touch your bag for inspection.

In an effort to limit contact between travelers and cabin crew during the COVID-19 pandemic, most reputable airlines have taken social distancing and other precautionary measures to the skies. A great example of these are:

• Avianca - this airline is known for conducting passenger temperature checks and cleaning with disinfectant.
• LATAM Airlines - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and capped capacity flights.
• American Airlines - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and cleaning with disinfectant.
