Margarita Island Packages (Flight + Hotel)

If it's your first time travelling during the COVID-19 outbreak, you'll notice a raft of new standards and rules in place. Follow these tips and make your escape to Margarita Island go off without a hitch:

• Investigate if any travel restrictions apply to your origin and destination 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 screening, keep your face mask on. You will be required to lower it briefly to verify your identity. Passengers who refuse to wear a face mask may face civil penalties and may also be escorted from the terminal.
• You're no longer required to hand your boarding pass (electronic or paper) directly to a TSA employee. Instead, you should position the pass on the reader and then hold it up to allow the agent to visually inspect it.
• 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 screening.
• Empty everything from your pocket, like your phone and wallet, and put them in your carry-on instead of the bins. This will minimize handling during the screening process.
• Transport any food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Separating food from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA employee will need to open and touch your bag for inspection.

In an effort to reduce contact between passengers and flight crew during the current pandemic, most reputable airlines have taken physical distancing and other precautionary measures to the skies. Just a few of these are:

• Avianca - this airline is known for conducting passenger temperature checks and cleaning with disinfectant.
• LATAM Airlines - this airline is known for providing passenger masks and capped capacity flights.
• JetBlue - this airline is known for keeping the middle seat empty and capped capacity flights.
