Motu Tau Tau Vacations

The COVID-19 outbreak has changed the way we travel, but it hasn't put the brakes on our appetite for exploring. Here are some tips on how to cope with the new challenges of traveling:

• Investigate if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before booking. Also check if there are any requirements you'll need to follow on arrival, such as testing and quarantining.
• You must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, including at security checkpoints. Be prepared to lower your mask for ID verification when asked by a TSA employee.
• Instead of handing a TSA officer your boarding pass, position it straight on the scanner yourself. Once 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 removed for X-ray scanning.
• Place any personal items (phone, wallet and keys for example) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during the screening process.
• Separate any food you're carrying for X-ray scanning. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA officer to handle and inspect your belongings.
