Valgrande-Pajares Holidays

The COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in dramatic changes to the way we travel. If you plan to visit Valgrande-Pajares, the following tips will help you navigate these new rules and challenges:

• Before locking in your flight, find out if any travel restrictions apply — in both your origin and destination. Get up-to-date information by checking official government websites.
• When you pass through airport screening, do not remove your face mask. You will be required to briefly lower it to verify your identity. Anyone refusing to wear a face mask may face civil penalties and may also be denied boarding.
• To reduce the possibility of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the reader yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your pass directly to a TSA officer.
• One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now allowed in your carry-on bag. It must not be larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to remove it from your bag for scanning.
• Remove items from your pocket, such as your keys, phone and wallet, and put them in your carry-on instead of the bins. This will minimize handling during screening.
• Separate any food you have for X-ray screening. Placing it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA agent to handle and inspect your belongings.
