What are some of the general tips for travellers to Phuket Island during the COVID-19 outbreak?

With new restrictions and safety precautions in effect, travel looks a little different right now. These are some handy things to know before you jet off to Phuket Island: Before booking your flight, find out if any travel restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Keep informed with the latest updates by reviewing government websites. When you go through airport screening, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to briefly lower it for ID purposes. Passengers who refuse to wear a mask may be fined and denied entry. You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA employee. Rather, place your pass on the scanner and then hold it up for the agent to visually inspect it. One liquid hand sanitizer container is now permitted in your carry-on bag. It must not be larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to remove it from your bag for X-ray screening. Remove items from your pocket, such as your wallet, coins and keys, and put them in your carry-on rather than into bins. This will minimize handling during screening. Separate any food you're carrying for screening. Placing it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA agent to touch and inspect your belongings.
