Shire of Broomehill Vacations

The COVID-19 outbreak has changed the world in all sorts of ways, including how we're able to safely travel. These tips will help you understand these new challenges and prepare you for your journey to Shire of Broomehill:

• Before you lock in a flight, check if any travel restrictions apply — in both your origin and destination. Keep informed with the latest updates by checking government and travel websites.
• Requirements state that you must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, even at screening checkpoints. You should be prepared to lower your mask for identification purposes when asked by a TSA employee.
• 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 reader and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it.
• TSA is now allowing 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 at the X-ray machine for scanning.
• Empty everything from your pocket, like your wallet and phone, and put them in your carry-on rather than the bins. This will minimize handling during the screening process.
• Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Keeping food separate from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA agent will need to touch and open your bag for inspection.

In an effort to minimize contact between travelers and cabin crew during the global COVID-19 pandemic, airlines have taken social distancing and other strategies to the skies. A good example of these are:

• Qantas - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and cleaning with disinfectant.
• Virgin Australia - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and cleaning with disinfectant.
• Rex Regional Express - this airline is known for conducting passenger temperature checks and cleaning with disinfectant.
