Zemgale Vacations from ￥233,394

With new safety guidelines in effect, travel looks a bit different these days. These are some handy things to know before you get on that plane to Zemgale:

• Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before locking in your flight. Also check if there are any special conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as testing and quarantining.
• You're required to wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, including at security checkpoints. Be prepared to lower your mask for identification purposes when asked by a TSA employee.
• Avoid handing your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA employee. Rather, you should place the pass on the reader and then hold it up so the agent can inspect it.
• You are now permitted to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your hand luggage. You'll have to remove it for screening.
• Remove personal items from your pockets, such as your wallet, keys and phone, and place them in your carry-on rather than the bins. This will minimize handling during the screening process.
• Transport your 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 employee will need to open and touch your bag for inspection.
