Knockmealdown Mountains Vacation Packages

With new COVID-19 rules and measures to adhere to, travel looks a little different at the moment. These are some handy things to know before you get on that plane to Knockmealdown Mountains:

• Understand what rules and restrictions apply to both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so be sure to check before you book your flight.
• Requirements state you must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, including at screening checkpoints. You should be prepared to lower your mask for ID purposes when asked by a TSA officer.
• 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 pass directly to a TSA agent.
• 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 X-ray screening.
• Remove personal items from your pocket, such as your wallet, keys and phone, and place them in your carry-on instead of into bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
• If you're taking food on the plane with you, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a screening bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to touch your carry-on bag or food container for inspection.
