What are some of the general tips for travellers to Northern Norway during the COVID-19 outbreak?
With strict COVID-19 precautions in effect, travel looks a lot different these days. These are some helpful things to know before you fly off to Northern Norway:
  • Investigate if any restrictions apply to both your origin and destination. It may not be possible to travel depending on local circumstances, so be sure to check in advance.
  • Requirements state you must wear a face mask at the airport, even at screening checkpoints. Be ready to lower your mask for ID purposes when asked by a TSA employee.
  • Rather than handing a TSA agent your boarding pass, place it straight on the scanner yourself. When that's done, hold it up for inspection.
  • TSA now permits 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 for scanning.
  • To minimize handling during the screening process, put items such as your keys, wallet, phone and belt into your carry-on instead of into the bins.
  • Separate any food you have for X-ray screening. Putting it in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA employee to touch and inspect your belongings.
