The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in huge changes to the way we travel. If you plan to jet off to Nayarit, these tips will help you navigate these new challenges:
- Research the rules and restrictions in both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so don’t forget to check before you lock in your flight.
- You’re required to wear a face mask at the airport, including at security checkpoints. You should be prepared to adjust your mask for identification purposes when asked.
- Rather than handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, place it directly on the reader yourself. Once that’s done, hold it up for inspection.
- One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now permitted in your carry-on bag. It must not be larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you’ll have to take it out of your bag for X-ray scanning.
- Put any personal items (like your phone, wallet and keys) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during the screening process.
- Transport all food items in a clear plastic bag and also place them in a screening bin. Keeping food separate from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA officer will need to touch and open your bag for inspection.
