Pulau Beras Basah Holidays

With new COVID-19 rules and measures in effect, travel looks a bit different today. Here are some useful things to know before you pack your bags for Pulau Beras Basah:

• Understand the rules and restrictions in both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so check government advisories before booking.
• Wear a face mask during airport screening. A TSA officer will require you to adjust your mask to verify your identity.
• To reduce the possibility 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 officer.
• TSA now permits 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 for X-ray screening.
• To minimize handling during the screening process, place personal items such as your phone, coins and keys into your carry-on rather than the bins.
• Transport your 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 agent will need to touch and open your bag for inspection.
