North Andaman Island Trip

If it's your first time travelling during the COVID-19 pandemic, you'll notice a few more standards and rules in place. Take note of these tips and make your escape to North Andaman Island go off without a hitch:

• Research if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before locking in a flight. Also check if there are any requirements you'll need to follow on arrival, such as taking a COVID-19 test.
• You must wear a face mask at the airport, even at screening checkpoints. You should be prepared to adjust your mask for ID purposes when asked by a TSA officer.
• You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass (electronic or paper) directly to a TSA employee. Instead, position the pass on the scanner and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it.
• 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 need to be removed from your bag to be screened.
• Empty your personal items from your pockets, like your wallet, keys and phone, and put them in your carry-on instead of the bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
• Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Keeping your food separate from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA officer will need to open and touch your bag for inspection.
