Cala Tarida Holidays

The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in major changes to the way we travel. If you're planning a holiday in Cala Tarida, these tips will help you navigate the "new normal:"

• Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before locking in a flight. Also check if there are any conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as health testing.
• Keep your face mask on during airport screening. A TSA officer will ask you to temporarily lower your mask for identification purposes.
• To minimize the risk of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer.
• One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now permitted in your carry-on luggage. It must be no larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to take it out of your bag for scanning.
• To minimize handling during the screening process, place personal items such as your phone and loose change into your carry-on rather than into the bins.
• Separate any food you have for X-ray 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.
