Isle of Berneray Vacations

With new COVID-19 rules and measures to adhere to, travel looks a little different nowadays. Here's what you need to know before you pack your suitcase for Isle of Berneray:

• Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before committing to a flight. Also check if there are any conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as proof of a negative COVID-19 test.
• Requirements state that you must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, including at security checkpoints. Be prepared to lower your mask for identification purposes when asked by a TSA officer.
• Avoid handing your boarding pass (electronic or paper) directly to a TSA officer. Instead, position the pass on the reader and then hold it up for inspection.
• TSA now allows passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on bags. This will need to be removed from your bag to be screened.
• Place any personal items (phone, wallet and keys for example) in your carry-on rather than a bin to reduce handling during the screening process.
• If you're taking food through the security checkpoint, put it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA officer will need to handle your carry-on bag or food container for inspection.
