Travel to Anacapa Island

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought about major changes to how we travel. If you're planning a trip to Anacapa Island, these tips will help you navigate these new challenges and rules:

• Look into the rules and restrictions in both your destination and origin. You may not be able to travel depending on local circumstances, so make sure you check before you book your flight.
• You must wear a face mask at the airport, including at screening checkpoints. Be ready to lower your mask to verify your identity when asked by a TSA employee.
• Do not hand your boarding pass (electronic or paper) directly to a TSA officer. Instead, you should position the pass on the scanner and then hold it up to allow the agent to visually inspect it.
• TSA now allows passengers to take one container of hand sanitizer, up to 12 oz (350 ml) in size, in carry-on baggage. This will need to be removed from your bag for X-ray scanning.
• Empty everything from your pockets, such as your wallet, coins and keys, and place them in your carry-on rather than into bins. This will minimize handling during the screening process.
• Separate any food you're carrying for screening. Food items often trigger the alarm. Putting them in a clear plastic bag and into a bin reduces the need for a TSA agent to touch and inspect your belongings.
