The COVID-19 pandemic has changed how we travel, but it hasn't put the brakes on our lust for exploring. Here are a few tips on how to tackle travel's new challenges:

• Before committing to anything, find out if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your origin and destination. Get the latest updates by reviewing government and travel websites.
• When you pass through airport checkpoints, do not remove your face mask. You will be asked to lower it briefly to verify your identity. Those who refuse to wear a face mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the terminal.
• Avoid handing your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer. Rather, you should position the pass on the scanner and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it.
• One liquid hand sanitizer container is now allowed in your carry-on baggage. It must be no bigger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to take it out of your bag for screening.
• Remove personal items from your pockets, like your small change and phone, and place them in your carry-on rather than into 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 your food separate from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA employee will need to open your bag for inspection.

In order to minimize contact between passengers and flight attendants during the current pandemic, most reputable airlines have taken social distancing and other precautionary measures to the skies. An example of these are:

• Eurowings - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and cleaning with disinfectant.
• Lufthansa - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and cleaning with disinfectant.
• Ryanair - this airline is known for cleaning with disinfectant and providing passenger masks.
