What are some of the general tips for travellers to Japan during the COVID-19 outbreak?

With new restrictions and safety precautions to follow, travel looks a lot different these days. These are some handy things to know before you hop on that plane to Japan: Before booking your flight, find out if any travel restrictions apply — in both your destination and origin. Keep informed with the latest updates by checking government travel advisories. Keep your face mask on during airport screening. A TSA officer will ask you to adjust your mask to verify your identity. Avoid handing your boarding pass (paper or electronic) directly to a TSA officer. Rather, place your pass on the reader and then hold it up for inspection. TSA is now allowing passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on bags. This will need to be removed from your bag at the X-ray machine for scanning. To minimize handling during the screening process, put items such as your keys, wallet, phone and belt into your carry-on rather than into the bins. Transport your food items in a clear plastic bag and also place them in a screening bin. Keeping food separate from your carry-on means it's less likely a TSA agent will need to open your bag for inspection.
