Cromstrijen Trip

If it's your first time travelling during the COVID-19 pandemic, you'll notice a raft of new restrictions and rules in place. Follow these tips and make your journey to Cromstrijen a smooth one:

• Before booking anything, see if any travel restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Get up-to-date information by checking government travel advisories.
• When you pass through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be required to briefly lower it to confirm your identity. Anyone refusing to wear a face mask may be fined and denied entry.
• Do not hand your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Rather, you should place the pass on the reader and then hold it up so the agent can inspect it.
• One liquid hand sanitizer container is now allowed in your carry-on luggage. It must be no bigger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to take it out of your bag at the X-ray machine for screening.
• Put any personal items (phone, wallet and keys for example) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during the screening process.
• If you want to take food through the screening checkpoint, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to touch your carry-on bag or food container for inspection.
