Lanzarote Vacations

The COVID-19 outbreak has ushered in substantial changes to how we travel. If you're planning a vacation in Lanzarote, the following tips will help you navigate these new challenges and rules:

• Research if any restrictions apply to both your destination and origin. 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 employee will ask you to temporarily lower your mask to verify your identity.
• Instead of handing a TSA employee your boarding pass, position it directly on the reader yourself. After that, hold it up for inspection.
• One liquid hand sanitizer container is now permitted in your carry-on baggage. It must not be larger than 12 oz (350 ml), and you'll have to remove it from your bag at the X-ray machine for scanning.
• Place any personal items (e.g, wallet, keys and phone) in your carry-on rather than a bin to minimize handling during screening.
• If you want to take food through the security checkpoint, place it in a clear plastic bag and then into a scanning bin. This reduces the likelihood that a TSA employee will need to handle your carry-on bag or food container for inspection.

As countries begin to lift travel restrictions, airlines are back in action with new measures including physical distancing and enhanced disinfection measures. Here's what some carriers are doing to help stop the spread of COVID-19:
