If it's your first time travelling during the COVID-19 outbreak, you'll notice a few more standards and rules in place. Follow these tips and make your trip to Franconia a smooth one:
  • Before you book a flight, find out if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your origin and destination. Stay informed with the latest updates by checking official government websites.
  • When you pass through airport screening, do not remove your face mask. You will be required to briefly lower it to verify your identity. Passengers who refuse to wear a face mask may be fined and denied entry.
  • You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Rather, place your pass on the scanner and then hold it up for inspection.
  • You are now permitted to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on baggage. You'll have to remove it for X-ray scanning.
  • Empty everything from your pocket, like your wallet, phone and small change, and place them in your carry-on rather than the bins. This will minimize handling during screening.
  • If you're taking food through the screening checkpoint, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to handle your food container or carry-on bag for closer inspection.
