Mesopotamia Vacations

If it's your first time traveling during the COVID-19 pandemic, you'll notice a range of new rules and restrictions in place. Take note of these tips and make your escape to Mesopotamia a smooth one:

• Research if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking. Also check if there are any requirements you'll have to follow on arrival, such as health testing.
• Keep your face mask on even during airport screening. A TSA employee will require you to lower your mask temporarily to verify your identity.
• Instead of handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, position it directly on the scanner yourself. When that's done, hold it up for inspection.
• You're permitted 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 screening.
• Place any personal items (phone, wallet and keys for example) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during screening.
• 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 employee to handle and inspect your belongings.
