Ilha da Restinga Vacation Packages

With new rules, restrictions and safety measures in place, travel looks a bit different today. Here's what you should know before you fly off to Ilha da Restinga:

• Before committing to anything, find out if any travel restrictions or bans apply — in both your destination and origin. Stay informed with the latest updates by checking official government websites.
• When you pass through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be required to briefly lower it for ID purposes. Those who refuse to wear a mask may be fined and denied boarding.
• Avoid handing your boarding pass directly to a TSA employee. Rather, you should place the pass on the scanner 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 need to remove it for X-ray scanning.
• Empty everything from your pocket, such as your wallet, coins and keys, and place them in your carry-on instead of the bins. This will minimize handling during screening.
• Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Keeping food separate from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA employee will need to touch and open your bag for inspection.
