Gulf Beaches Holidays

In the face of the COVID-19 outbreak, travelling now comes with a few extra challenges. Make a note of these helpful tips before jumping on your flight to Gulf Beaches:

• Before you book a flight, check if any travel restrictions or bans apply — in both your origin and destination. Get the latest updates by checking government websites.
• Keep your face mask on during airport screening. A TSA employee will ask you to adjust your mask for ID purposes.
• Avoid handing your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA employee. Rather, position your pass on the reader and then hold it up for the agent to visually 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 at the X-ray machine for scanning.
• Place any personal items (e.g, keys, phone and coins) in your carry-on instead of a bin to minimize handling during screening.
• Separate any food you have for X-ray scanning. Placing it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to touch and inspect your belongings.
