The COVID-19 outbreak has resulted in significant changes to how we travel. If you're planning an escape to Big Sky, the following tips will help you navigate this new traveling reality: Find out if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before booking anything. Also check if there are any conditions you'll have to follow on arrival, such as testing and quarantining. When you pass through airport checkpoints, do not remove your face mask. You will be required to lower it briefly for ID purposes. Travelers who refuse to wear a mask may be fined and denied entry. Rather than handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, place it straight on the reader yourself. Once that's done, hold it up for inspection. TSA now allows passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on luggage. This will have to be removed from your bag for X-ray scanning. Place any personal items (e.g, keys, phone and wallet) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during screening. Transport all food items in a clear plastic bag and also place them in a screening bin. Keeping food separate from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA officer will need to open your bag for inspection.
