What are some of the general tips for travelers to Southwest Illinois during the COVID-19 outbreak?
The COVID-19 pandemic has affected how the world works in a profound way, including our approach to travel. These tips will help you understand these new challenges and prepare you for your vacation in Southwest Illinois:
  • Research what, if any, restrictions or rules apply to both your origin and destination. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so don't forget to check in advance.
  • When you go through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be required to lower it briefly for ID purposes. Anyone refusing to wear a face mask may face civil penalties and may also be denied boarding.
  • To reduce the likelihood of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA agent.
  • One liquid hand sanitizer container is now allowed in your carry-on luggage. It must be no larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to remove it from your bag at the X-ray machine for scanning.
  • To minimize handling during the screening process, put items such as your phone, keys and wallet into your carry-on instead of the bins.
  • Separate any food you have for X-ray scanning. Food items often set off the alarm. Placing them in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA officer to handle and inspect your belongings.
