What are some of the general tips for travelers to Red Centre during the COVID-19 outbreak?
COVID-19 may have changed the way we travel, but it hasn't deterred our enthusiasm for exploring. Here are some tips on how to deal with the new challenges of traveling:
  • Find out the rules and restrictions in both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so check in advance.
  • When you go through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be required to lower it briefly for identification purposes. Passengers who refuse to wear a mask may face civil penalties and may also be denied boarding.
  • To minimize the risk of cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA employee.
  • TSA now permits passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on bags. This will have to be removed from your bag at the X-ray machine for scanning.
  • Put any personal items (phone, wallet and keys for example) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during screening.
  • Separate any food you're carrying for screening. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA agent to handle and inspect your belongings.
