What are some of the general tips for travellers to French Alps during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed the world in all sorts of ways, including how we're able to safely travel. These tips will help you navigate the new challenges and prepare you for your escape to French Alps:
  • Before you lock in a flight, check if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Get the latest updates by reviewing government and travel websites.
  • When you pass through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be required to lower it briefly for ID purposes. Those who refuse to wear a mask may face civil penalties and may also be denied boarding.
  • Rather than handing a TSA agent your boarding pass, place it straight on the reader yourself. After that, hold it up for inspection.
  • One liquid hand sanitizer container is now permitted in your carry-on bag. It must be no larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to take it out of your bag for X-ray scanning.
  • To minimize handling during the screening process, place personal items such as your wallet, phone and belt into your carry-on instead of the bins.
  • If you're planning to take food on board, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA officer will need to handle your carry-on bag or food container for inspection.
