What are some of the general tips for travellers to Central Illinois during the COVID-19 outbreak?
As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, travelling now comes with a few additional challenges. Take note of these handy tips before jumping on your plane to Central Illinois:
  • Research if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination before locking in a flight. Also check if there are any conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as mandatory quarantining.
  • Requirements state that you must wear a face mask throughout your travel experience, even at screening checkpoints. Be prepared to lower your mask to verify your identity when asked.
  • 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 employee.
  • One container of liquid hand sanitizer is now permitted in your carry-on bag. It must not be larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll need to take it out of your bag for scanning.
  • Put any personal items (like your phone and wallet) in your carry-on instead of a bin to reduce handling during screening.
  • Transport all food items in a clear plastic bag and also place them in a screening bin. Keeping your food separate from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA agent will need to open your bag for inspection.
