Chiemgau Alps Trip

The COVID-19 outbreak has transformed how the world works in all kinds of ways, including how we're able to travel safely. The following tips will help you navigate these new challenges and get you ready for your escape to Chiemgau Alps:

• Look into what rules and restrictions apply to both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so make sure you check before you lock something in.
• When you pass through airport checkpoints, do not remove your face mask. You will be required to lower it briefly to confirm your identity. Anyone refusing to wear a mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the building.
• You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA employee. Rather, place your pass on the scanner and then hold it up so the agent can inspect it.
• One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now allowed in your carry-on luggage. It must not be larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to remove it from your bag for scanning.
• Empty everything from your pockets, like your small change and phone, and put them in your carry-on instead of into bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
• Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Keeping food separate from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA officer will need to touch and open your bag for inspection.
