PREPARING FOR TRAVEL
Whether its domestic or international or down-the-street, the decision to travel is a personal choice that is different for everyone and there is no universal "right" or "wrong" choice that applies to everyone. The COVID-19 pandemic has changed the travel landscape like nothing we've seen before, but weighing the risks and benefits of a trip was something we all were doing before as well. And while the travel industry is working hard to ensure all traveler's safety and health, it's up to you to decide when you're ready to go on your next trip. Below are some good resources for deciding when and where the next adventure is for you. Click the icons to learn more.

WHAT'S IT LIKE TO FLY AND GO TO THE AIRPORT?
All major carriers are requiring face masks on their flights and you'll likely notice new boarding & deplaning processes to encourage social distancing and changes to in-flight services to limit interactions. The TSA has also implemented new procedures to adhere to social distancing recommendations, reduce contact with staff and allowances for more hand sanitizer in your carry-on luggage. Here's a video from the TSA's Stay Healthy. Stay Secure. campaign showing some of the changes they've implemented.
