Ganaraska Forest Holidays from AU$2,699

With new rules, restrictions and safety measures in effect, travel looks a lot different at present. Here's what you need to know before you fly off to Ganaraska Forest:

• Before you book a flight, check if any travel bans or restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Get the latest updates by checking government websites.
• Wear a face mask during airport screening. A TSA officer will require you to temporarily lower your mask to verify your identity.
• To decrease the risk of cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA officer.
• 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 screening.
• Remove items from your pockets, like your wallet and phone, and put them in your carry-on instead of the bins. This will reduce handling during screening.
• Transport your food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Separating food from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA employee will need to touch and open your bag for inspection.
