What are some of the general tips for travellers to Central Coast during the COVID-19 outbreak?

With new COVID-19 safety guidelines to adhere to, travel looks a little different right now. Here's what you should know before you head off to Central Coast: Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before committing to a flight. Also check if there are any conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as undergoing health assessments. Requirements state that you must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, including at security checkpoints. You should be prepared to lower your mask for ID purposes when asked by a TSA officer. Instead of handing a TSA agent your boarding pass, position it straight on the scanner yourself. Then, hold it up for inspection. You're permitted to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on bag. You'll have to remove it for screening. To minimize handling during screening, place items such as your phone, keys and wallet into your carry-on instead of into the bins. Transport your food items in a clear plastic bag and also place them in a screening bin. Keeping your food separate from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA agent will need to open and touch your bag for inspection.
