Travellers must update themselves with the latest COVID-restriction updates to ensure safe
travel. Here are some of the tips from experts on how you can safely travel during these difficult
times.
Know the Covid-19 rate in your destination
Even if you are already vaccinated, it's still crucial to assess COVID-19 levels in the area or
country you are travelling to. If these are high, this puts you at a greater risk of contracting
COVID-19, and while you may have protection from the virus, your friends and family may not.
Know the restrictions
While you're at your destination, there will be local restrictions on activities that may differ from
where you have travelled from. Its ranges from whether you have to wear a mask to whether the
local bars and restaurants are open.
Plan when testing
There is still a lot of confusion about what tests are needed to travel, depending on the
destination. This can range from whether they accept passengers who have been vaccinated, or
require a PCR or Antigen fit to fly test.To find an area's Covid-19 test positivity rate and test
requirements, visit the website of its local public health department. This allows you to plan your
Covid tests ahead of time, reduce anxiety and save on fees from last-minute testing.
Stay safe when flying
Because of how air is filtered and circulates on airplanes, the Covid-19 virus does not spread
easily on flights. However, crowded flights can make social distancing difficult so it's important
to limit contact and wear a face-covering during the flight and when boarding and leaving the
aircraft.
Instead of using traditional boarding passes or handing them to staff for inspection, opt for an
electronic or mobile pass which you can put on the scanner and display yourself.
Choose safe activities
While in enclosed places such as indoor bars or restaurants may be legal at a destination you
visit, they carry a significantly greater risk of contracting Covid-19. On entering and leaving any
facility or any place for that matter, you should always wash your hands thoroughly for at least
20 seconds using soap and water.
