Goose Island State Park Vacations

COVID-19 has resulted in significant changes to how we travel. If you plan to visit Goose Island State Park, the following tips will help you navigate these new challenges and rules:

• Before locking in your flight, check if any travel restrictions or bans apply — in both your destination and origin. Keep informed with the latest updates by reviewing government websites.
• Keep your face mask on during airport screening. A TSA officer will require you to temporarily lower your mask to verify your identity.
• Avoid handing your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA employee. Instead, you should place the pass on the scanner and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it.
• TSA is now allowing passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on luggage. This will need to be removed from your bag for scanning.
• Put any personal items (e.g, keys, phone and coins) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during screening.
• Separate any food you have for X-ray scanning. Food items often trigger the alarm. Putting them in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to touch and inspect your belongings.
