North Metro East Packages (Flight + Hotel)

With strict COVID-19 precautions in effect, travel looks a bit different today. Here's what you should know before you get on that plane to North Metro East:

• Find out if any restrictions apply to both your origin and destination. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so check before you book.
• Wear a face mask even during airport screening. A TSA officer will require you to adjust your mask to verify your identity.
• To minimize 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 officer.
• One liquid hand sanitizer container is now permitted in your carry-on bag. It must be no larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to take it out of your bag at the X-ray machine for scanning.
• To minimize handling during screening, place items such as your phone and loose change into your carry-on instead of into the bins.
• Transport all food items in a clear plastic bag and also put them in a screening bin. Keeping food separate from your carry-on makes it less likely that a TSA agent will need to touch and open your bag for inspection.
