San Jose Island Holidays

With the continuation of the COVID-19 pandemic, travelling now comes with a few more challenges. Read through these worthwhile tips before jumping on your flight to San Jose Island:

• Before booking your flight, find out if any travel restrictions or bans apply — in both your destination and origin. Keep informed with the latest updates by checking government travel advisories.
• When you go through airport screening, do not remove your face mask. You will be asked to lower it briefly to confirm your identity. Anyone refusing to wear a face mask may be denied entry or boarding.
• Instead of handing a TSA officer your boarding pass, position it straight on the scanner yourself. Once that's done, hold it up for inspection.
• You can now take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on baggage. This will need to be taken out for X-ray scanning.
• Place any personal items (phone, wallet and keys) in your carry-on rather than a bin to reduce handling during screening.
• Transport all food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Separating food from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA officer will need to open and touch your bag for inspection.

In order to minimize contact between passengers and flight attendants during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, airlines have taken social distancing and other strategies to the skies. A good example of these are:
