Fenwick Island State Park Trip

With new rules, restrictions and safety measures in effect, travel looks a lot different in this day and age. These are some helpful things to know before you hop on that plane to Fenwick Island State Park:

• Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before locking in a flight. Also check if there are any conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as health testing.
• Wear a face mask during airport screening. A TSA officer will require you to adjust your mask to verify your identity.
• Instead of handing a TSA agent your boarding pass, position it directly on the reader yourself. Once that's done, 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 at the X-ray machine for screening.
• Place any personal items (phone, keys and wallet) in your carry-on rather than a bin to reduce handling during the screening process.
• If you're taking food on the plane with you, put 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 food container or carry-on bag for inspection.
