Espalmador Island Holidays

With new COVID-19 safety guidelines in place, travel looks a bit different nowadays. Here are a few things to know before you fly off to Espalmador Island:

• Before booking your flight, see if any travel restrictions or bans apply — in both your destination and origin. Stay informed with the latest updates by reviewing government websites.
• Requirements state that you must wear a face mask at the airport, even at screening checkpoints. You should be prepared to adjust your mask for identification purposes when asked by a TSA officer.
• Do not hand your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Rather, place your pass on the scanner and then hold it up so the agent can inspect it.
• TSA now permits passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on luggage. This will need to be removed from your bag and presented for screening.
• Empty your personal items from your pocket, like your wallet and phone, and place them in your carry-on instead of the bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
• If you're planning to take food on the plane, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA agent will need to handle your food container or carry-on bag for inspection.
