The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in big changes to the way we travel. If you plan to visit South Carolina, the following tips will help you navigate the "new normal:" Research if any travel restrictions apply to your destination and origin before locking in a flight. Also check if there are any special conditions you'll need to follow on arrival, such as taking a COVID-19 test. Requirements state that you must wear a face mask at the airport, including at screening checkpoints. Be ready to lower your mask for ID verification when asked by a TSA officer. Rather than handing a TSA officer your boarding pass, place it directly on the scanner yourself. After that, hold it up for inspection. You can now take one container of hand sanitizer up to 12 oz (350 ml) in your carry-on baggage. You'll have to remove it for X-ray screening. Put any personal items (phone, wallet and keys for example) in your carry-on rather than a bin to reduce handling during screening. Separate any food you're carrying for screening. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA officer to handle and inspect your belongings.
