Ile de Re Vacations

If it's your first time traveling during COVID-19, you'll notice a range of new rules and standards in place. Take note of these tips and make your journey to Ile de Re go off without a hitch:

• Before booking anything, find out if any travel restrictions or bans apply — in both your destination and origin. Keep informed with the latest updates by reviewing government and airport websites.
• Wear a face mask even during airport screening. A TSA employee will ask you to lower your mask temporarily to verify your identity.
• Instead of handing a TSA officer your boarding pass, position it straight on the reader yourself. After that, hold it up for inspection.
• One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now allowed in your carry-on luggage. It must be no larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to remove it from your bag at the X-ray machine for screening.
• To minimize handling during the screening process, place personal items such as your phone, keys and wallet into your carry-on rather than into the bins.
• If you're bringing food through the screening checkpoint, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA officer will need to handle your food container or carry-on bag for closer inspection.
