Otok Babac Trip

With strict COVID-19 precautions to follow, travel looks a little different at the moment. Here's what you need to know before you jet off to Otok Babac:

• Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking anything. Also check if there are any special conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as installing a contact tracing app.
• Wear a face mask during airport screening. A TSA officer will ask you to lower your mask temporarily for identification purposes.
• Rather than handing a TSA agent your boarding pass, place it directly on the reader yourself. Then, hold it up for inspection.
• One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now allowed 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 scanning.
• To reduce handling during screening, place personal items such as your phone, keys and wallet into your carry-on rather than into the bins.
• If you want to take food through the screening checkpoint, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to touch your food container or carry-on bag for inspection.
