Pahawang Island Holidays

If it's your first time travelling during the COVID-19 pandemic, you'll notice new standards and rules in place. Follow these tips and make your trip to Pulau Pahawang a smooth one:

• Investigate if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking anything. Also check if there are any special conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as health testing.
• You must wear a face mask at the airport, including at screening checkpoints. Be prepared to lower your mask to verify your identity when asked.
• To reduce the likelihood of cross-contamination, place your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA agent.
• You can take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your hand luggage. This will need to be removed for X-ray screening.
• Remove personal items from your pocket, like your keys, phone and wallet, and put them in your carry-on instead of the bins. This will minimize handling during screening.
• Transport all food items in a clear plastic bag and also place 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.

From the airport itself to the plane cabin, airlines across the globe have adopted measures like social distancing to help stop transmission of COVID-19. Two excellent examples are:

• Sriwijaya Air - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and conducting passenger temperature checks.
• Garuda Indonesia - this airline is known for conducting passenger temperature checks and keeping the middle seat empty.
