Kleinwalsertal Trip

COVID-19 has triggered dramatic changes to how we travel. If you're planning an escape to Kleinwalsertal, these tips will help you navigate these new challenges:

• Before booking anything, find out if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your origin and destination. Get up-to-date information by checking official government websites.
• When you pass through airport checkpoints, do not remove your face mask. You will be asked to lower it briefly for ID purposes. Travellers who refuse to wear a mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the terminal.
• To reduce the possibility of cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA agent.
• TSA now permits 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 and presented for screening.
• Empty everything from your pocket, like your wallet and phone, and place them in your carry-on instead of the bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
• If you want to take food on the plane with you, 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 carry-on bag or food container for inspection.
