What are some of the general tips for travelers to Central Ohio during the COVID-19 outbreak?
As a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, traveling today comes with more challenges than in the past. Read through these handy tips before boarding your plane to Central Ohio:
  • Research what rules and restrictions apply to both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so make sure you check before you book your flight.
  • When you pass through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be required to lower it briefly to verify your identity. Those who refuse to wear a face mask may be fined and denied boarding.
  • To reduce the risk of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer.
  • One liquid hand sanitizer container is now permitted in your carry-on luggage. It must be no bigger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to take it out of your bag for scanning.
  • To reduce handling during screening, put items such as your wallet, phone and belt into your carry-on instead of the bins.
  • If you're taking food through security screening, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to touch your food container or carry-on bag for inspection.
