The COVID-19 pandemic may have changed how we travel, but it hasn't put the brakes on our zest for exploring. Here are a few tips on how to tackle the new challenges of traveling:

• Before you book a flight, find out if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your origin and destination. Keep informed with the latest updates by reviewing official government websites.
• Requirements state that you must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, including at screening checkpoints. You should 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.
• One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now allowed in your carry-on baggage. It must be no larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to remove it from your bag at the X-ray machine for screening.
• Put any personal items (phone, keys and wallet) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during the screening process.
• Separate any food you have for screening. 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.

As countries reopen and we begin exploring the world once again, many airlines have implemented policies such as social distancing to help minimize the spread of COVID-19. Below are two great examples:

• Ryanair - this airline is known for cleaning with disinfectant and providing passenger masks.
• Air Corsica - this airline is known for conducting passenger temperature checks and providing passenger masks.
