German Wine Route Vacations from ￥152,206

With new COVID-19 safety guidelines to adhere to, travel looks a bit different at present. These are some handy things to know before you fly off to German Wine Route:

• Before you lock in a flight, check if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your origin and destination. Get up-to-date information by reviewing government travel advisories.
• When you pass through airport checkpoints, do not remove your face mask. You will be required to lower it briefly for ID purposes. Passengers who refuse to wear a mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the terminal.
• Rather than handing a TSA agent your boarding pass, place it directly on the reader yourself. When that's done, hold it up for inspection.
• You're allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your hand luggage. This will need to be taken out for X-ray scanning.
• To minimize handling during the screening process, place personal items such as your phone and loose change into your carry-on rather than into the bins.
• Transport all food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Keeping your food separate from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA employee will need to open your bag for inspection.
