Casinca Trip

COVID-19 has transformed the world in all sorts of ways, including how we're able to safely travel. These tips will help you understand the new challenges and prepare you for your escape to Casinca:

• Before you lock in a flight, see if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Get up-to-date information by checking government and travel websites.
• Requirements state that you must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, including at security checkpoints. Be ready to lower your mask to verify your identity when asked by a TSA officer.
• You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer. Instead, you should place the pass on the scanner and then hold it up for inspection.
• TSA now allows passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on bags. This will have to be removed from your bag to be screened.
• Place any personal items (phone, wallet and keys for example) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during the screening process.
• If you want to take food through the security checkpoint, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to touch your carry-on bag or food container for inspection.
