As a result of the COVID-19 outbreak, travelling now comes with a few additional challenges. Take a look at these handy tips before boarding your plane to Garden Route: Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before committing to a flight. Also check if there are any conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as taking a COVID-19 test. When you go through airport checkpoints, keep your face mask on. You will be asked to briefly lower it for identification purposes. Those who refuse to wear a face mask may be fined and denied boarding.

You're allowed to take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your hand luggage. You'll have to remove it for X-ray scanning. Empty everything from your pocket, like your keys, phone and wallet, and put them in your carry-on rather than the bins. This will minimize handling during the screening process. 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 touch and inspect your belongings.
