What are some of the general tips for travellers to East Coast Zanzibar during the COVID-19 outbreak?
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, travelling today comes with more challenges. Make a note of these handy tips before hopping on your plane to East Coast Zanzibar:
  • Before you lock in a flight, find out if any travel restrictions or bans apply — in both your origin and destination. Get the latest updates by reviewing official government websites.
  • Requirements state that you must wear a face mask at the airport, including at screening checkpoints. You should be prepared to lower your mask for ID purposes when asked by a TSA employee.
  • Do not hand your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Instead, you should position the pass on the reader and then hold it up to allow the agent to visually inspect it.
  • You are now allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on luggage. This will need to be removed for X-ray screening.
  • Empty your personal items from your pockets, such as your wallet, phone and small change, and put them in your carry-on rather than into bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
  • Separate any food you have for screening. Placing it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA agent to touch and inspect your belongings.
