Barnum Island Holidays from £780

In the era of the COVID-19 outbreak, travelling today comes with more challenges than usual. Read through these valuable tips before jumping on your flight to Barnum Island:

• Before you book a flight, check if any travel restrictions apply — in both your origin and destination. Stay informed with the latest updates by checking government travel advisories.
• 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 mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the building.
• To decrease the risk of cross-contamination, position your boarding pass on the scanner yourself and then hold it up for inspection. Do not hand your boarding pass directly to a TSA officer.
• One liquid hand sanitizer container is now permitted in your carry-on luggage. It must be no bigger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to remove it from your bag for X-ray screening.
• To reduce handling during the screening process, put items such as your loose change and phone 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 employee will need to touch and open your bag for inspection.
