Brandner Valley Vacations

COVID-19 has transformed the world in a profound way, including how we can travel safely. The following tips will help you better understand these new challenges and prepare you for your flight to Brandner Valley:

• Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before booking your flight. Also check if there are any requirements you'll need to follow on arrival, such as proof of a negative COVID-19 test.
• When you pass through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be required to lower it briefly to confirm your identity. Passengers who refuse to wear a face mask may be fined and denied boarding.
• Rather than handing a TSA agent your boarding pass, place it straight on the scanner yourself. Then, hold it up for inspection.
• 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 have to be removed from your bag to be screened.
• Empty your personal items from your pocket, such as your phone and wallet, and put them in your carry-on rather than into bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
• Separate any food you have for X-ray scanning. Food items often set off the alarm. Placing them in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA officer to handle and inspect your belongings.
