Kintyre Vacations

The COVID-19 outbreak has transformed how the world works in countless ways, including how and where we travel. The following tips will help you navigate these new challenges and prepare you for your vacation in Kintyre:

• Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before booking. Also check if there are any conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as testing and quarantining.
• Requirements state you must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, including at security checkpoints. Be prepared to lower your mask to verify your identity when asked by a TSA employee.
• To avoid cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA employee.
• You're permitted to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on luggage. You'll need to remove it for screening.
• To reduce handling during the screening process, put items such as your keys, wallet, phone and belt into your carry-on rather than into the bins.
• Separate any food you're carrying for X-ray screening. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to handle and inspect your belongings.
