Pustevny Vacations

COVID-19 has triggered huge changes to the way we travel. If you plan to jet off to Pustevny, these tips will help you navigate these new rules and challenges:

• Look into the rules and restrictions in both your destination and origin. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so check government advisories before booking.
• When you go through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to lower it briefly for identification purposes. Those who refuse to wear a mask may be denied entry or boarding.
• You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Rather, you should place the pass on the scanner and then hold it up for inspection.
• TSA is now permitting passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on baggage. This will need to be removed from your bag for screening.
• 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.
• If you're bringing food through the security 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.
