Isla Contoy Holidays

With new restrictions and safety precautions to follow, travel looks a lot different in this day and age. Here are some useful things to know before you pack your suitcase for Isla Contoy:

• Find out the rules and restrictions in both your destination and origin. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so remember to check before you book.
• When you go through airport checkpoints, do not remove your face mask. You will be required to lower it briefly for ID purposes. Passengers who refuse to wear a mask may be fined and denied entry.
• To reduce the possibility of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA employee.
• TSA is now allowing passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on bags. This will have to be removed from your bag at the X-ray machine for scanning.
• To reduce handling during screening, place personal items such as your keys, wallet, phone and belt into your carry-on rather than the bins.
• If you're bringing food on board, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This lessens the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to touch your food container or carry-on bag for closer inspection.
