Isla Viveros Trip

In the face of COVID-19, travelling today comes with more challenges. Have a read over the following tips before jumping on your plane to Isla Viveros:

• Research if any restrictions apply to both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so remember to check in advance.
• When you pass through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to briefly lower it for ID purposes. Those who refuse to wear a face mask may face civil penalties and may also be denied boarding.
• Instead of handing a TSA agent your boarding pass, place it straight on the reader yourself. When that's done, hold it up for inspection.
• One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now permitted in your carry-on luggage. It must not be larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to remove it from your bag for screening.
• Remove personal items from your pockets, like your phone, keys and wallet, and put them in your carry-on rather than the bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
• If you're bringing food through security screening, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to handle your food container or carry-on bag for inspection.
