Slate Islands Vacations

The COVID-19 pandemic has transformed how the world works in endless ways, including how we're able to travel safely. These tips will help you understand these new challenges and get you ready for your flight to Slate Islands:

• Know the restrictions and rules in both your destination and origin. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so be sure to check before you book.
• You must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, including at security checkpoints. Be prepared to adjust your mask for identification purposes when asked by a TSA officer.
• Rather than handing a TSA agent your boarding pass, position it straight on the reader yourself. After that, hold it up for inspection.
• One liquid hand sanitizer container is now allowed in your carry-on bag. It must not be larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to remove it from your bag for X-ray screening.
• Empty everything from your pocket, such as your keys, phone and wallet, and put them in your carry-on rather than into bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
• Transport all food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Keeping your food separate from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA officer will need to touch and open your bag for inspection.
