What are some of the general tips for travellers to Northern Iceland during the COVID-19 outbreak?
Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, travelling today comes with some extra challenges. Cast your eye over the following tips before boarding your plane to Northern Iceland:

  • Requirements state that you must wear a face mask at the airport, including at screening checkpoints. Be prepared to adjust your mask for identification purposes when asked by a TSA officer.
  • Rather than handing a TSA officer your boarding pass, position it straight on the reader yourself. Once that's done, hold it up for inspection.
  • You're allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on baggage. You'll have to remove it for screening.
  • Remove items from your pocket, like your wallet and phone, and place them in your carry-on rather than into bins. This will reduce handling during the screening process.
  • 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 handle and inspect your belongings.
