What are some of the general tips for travellers to Central Virginia during the COVID-19 outbreak?
In the face of the COVID-19 pandemic, travelling now comes with more challenges than usual. Keep in mind these useful tips before boarding your flight to Central Virginia:
  • Investigate if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before booking anything. Also check if there are any special conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as installing a contact tracing app.
  • Wear a face mask even during airport screening. A TSA employee will require you to temporarily lower your mask for identification purposes.
  • To reduce the risk of cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA agent.
  • One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now permitted in your carry-on baggage. It must not be larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to take it out of your bag at the X-ray machine for screening.
  • Empty your personal items from your pocket, such as your wallet, keys and phone, and place them in your carry-on rather than into bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
  • Transport all food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Separating food from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA employee will need to open and touch your bag for inspection.
