What are some of the general tips for travellers to Elba Island during the COVID-19 outbreak?
COVID-19 has changed the way we travel, but it hasn't halted our desire to explore. Here are some tips on how to deal with the new challenges of travelling:
  • Investigate the restrictions and rules in both your destination and origin. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so be sure to check government advisories before booking.
  • Wear a face mask during airport screening. A TSA officer will ask you to adjust your mask for identification purposes.
  • Avoid handing your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Rather, you should position the pass on the reader and then hold it up for inspection.
  • TSA now allows passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on luggage. This will have to be removed from your bag for X-ray scanning.
  • Place any personal items (like your phone, wallet and keys) in your carry-on rather than a bin to reduce handling during the screening process.
  • Separate any food you're carrying for X-ray scanning. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to touch and inspect your belongings.
