Batu Kawan Island Holidays from AU$1,096

If it's your first time travelling during COVID-19  you'll notice a raft of new restrictions and rules in place. Follow these tips and make your journey to Batu Kawan Island a smooth one:

• Research if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking. Also check if there are any requirements you'll need to follow on arrival, such as installing a contact tracing app.
• Keep your face mask on even during airport screening. A TSA officer will ask you to lower your mask temporarily for ID purposes.
• Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer. Instead, place your pass on the scanner and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it.
• One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now permitted in your carry-on baggage. It must be no larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to take it out of your bag for X-ray screening.
• Place any personal items (e.g, wallet, keys and phone) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during the screening process.
• Separate any food you're carrying for screening. Food items often trigger the alarm. Putting them in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA agent to handle and inspect your belongings.
