Tips for holiday travel during the coronavirus pandemic - Chattanooga Times Free Press

Q. My family plans to travel by air for the holidays. COVID considerations make planning much more complex. What advice may BBB provide for travel?

A. Thinking about traveling by air for the holiday season? According to data from Airlines for America, airlines in the United States were serving only about a third as many passengers as they did a year before, and although many of them are offering enticing deals to fly, it is costing the carriers billions just to stay afloat. As the holiday season starts, some may feel the need to visit families. When looking for the best fare available, read the details required by the carrier to travel safely during the coronavirus pandemic and review CDC guidelines, www.cdc.gov.

Before clicking the button to buy tickets, BBB recommends the following:

* Make certain everyone who is traveling has the appropriate ID, www.tsa.gov. The deadline for the TSA-required Real ID has been delayed to October 1, 2021; however, make sure parties traveling together have a current compliant ID as required by each state.

* Read all cancellation polices carefully. Not all situations, including a pandemic, require a full refund of the ticket value and fees. Each online travel agency, airline and broker is different.

* Book tickets only after reviewing travel restrictions. Save time and stress by reading the updated status of restrictions, www.cdc.gov on the Centers for Disease Control website.

* Consider trip insurance. Have a complete understanding of what the policy does and does not cover. Travel insurance covers things like trip cancellations or medical emergencies. There are different levels of coverage based on what type of plan you purchase. Ask a lot of questions, and always read the fine print to see what's covered and what's not.

* Be an informed traveler. Refer to the Department of Transportation website, www.transportation.gov for details on consumer issues, filing complaints and other aviation information.

During the holiday season or any time of year, find ways to travel safely and avoid scams, www.bbb.org. Remember to report any suspicious activity. BBB warns people to plan ahead to save money, avoid scams, and travel safely.

Scammers commonly target people looking for great deals online by offering tempting vacation packages at unrealistically low prices. BBB.org is a great resource for finding travel agencies, agents and websites that are reputable and dependable.

Here are some additional tips from BBB to help ensure a worry-free travel vacation during the holidays.

Plan ahead. The early bird gets the worm. Allow yourself the time to research hotels, flights, and the area where you will be staying. Typically, the earlier you make reservations, the better the deals you will find and the lower the risk of your favorite destination being booked solid. Making reservations in advance also locks in rates and prevents you from paying higher prices later during the holiday season.

Avoid broad internet searches. Try to avoid entering phrases like 'best deals' into whichever search engine you use. Broad search terms like that can sometimes lead you to websites that look official, but are designed solely to rip people off.

Be alert for travel scams. Watch out for phone calls or letters claiming that you've "won a trip" or websites offering prices that are too good to be true. It's easy to extend questionable offers like these, but the vast majority of them leave hopeful travelers in limbo – and out money.

Do your homework. Ask family and friends to recommend a travel agent or travel website and visit BBB.org for free Business Profiles. If you are using online services to find accommodations, be sure to research the business and read customer reviews about any rentals you are considering.

Get trip details in writing. Before making final payment, get all the details of the trip in writing. This should include the total cost, restrictions, cancellation penalties, and names of the airlines and hotels. Also, review and keep a copy of the airline's and hotel's cancellation and refund policies, as well as the cancellation policies of the travel agency or booking site you are using.

Pay with a credit card gives you additional protection if something should go wrong with the travel reservation.

Planning to travel internationally? Check to see if there are any advisories affecting Canada www.travel.gc.ca and the U.S. Travel Association, www.ustravel.org, for any issues that may impact your trip.

No matter when or where you are traveling, there are things you should always do to protect yourself, your home, and your belongings:

Wait to post on social media. We all like to share our vacation adventures with friends and family, but wait until you get back from your trip. Giving too much detail about when you will be away, and your home will be empty, could attract thieves.

Check your home insurance. If your home will be unattended while you are away, make sure you know your responsibilities under your home insurance policy. Some policies do not cover damage if nobody checks on your home for a certain amount of time.

Share a copy of your itinerary with a family member or friend. Include the contact information of someone joining you on your trip.

Take a map. People rely heavily on smartphones and GPS. Have a hard copy backup in case of technical difficulties or if you are going through an area with poor cellphone reception. Check the weather conditions where you will be traveling and pack appropriate supplies and clothing.

Avoid traveling alone. Use the buddy system and stick with your friends.

Use a hotel safe to store extra cash and keep any valuables under lock and key.

Ducks to Travel to “Bubbleville” - GoDucks.com

dogol.indah.link

EUGENE, Ore. – No. 20 Oregon will play two games next month at the Mohegan Sun Arena in Uncasville, Conn., as part of an event dubbed "Bubbleville."
 
The Ducks will play Missouri either Dec. 2 or Dec. 3 and a yet-to-be-determined second opponent on the other day.
 
Bubbleville is a collegiate event hosted by the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame and Gazelle Group that will feature 40 men's and women's teams playing a combined 45 games over 11 days (Nov. 25-Dec. 5). It takes the place of several events that were altered due to the COVID-19 pandemic and will be conducted under tribal, government, and NCAA health and safety protocols and testing requirements. Games will be played without fans in attendance.
 
Oregon and Missouri have met five times with the Tigers holding a 5-0 series lead. The two teams last played a decade ago. No. 9 Missouri escaped McArthur Court with an 83-80 victory on Dec. 2, 2010, during head coach Dana Altman's first season at Oregon. The Tigers were 15-16 in 2019-20.
 
The Ducks will open the 2020-21 season by hosting Eastern Washington Nov. 25 at Matthew Knight Arena.
 
It will be the fourth meeting between Oregon and EWU. The Ducks lead the series 3-0. The two teams last met Nov. 9, 2018, in Eugene. Current UO junior Will Richardson had five points and two assists as a freshman in an 81-47 Oregon win.
 
Coming off a 23-8 season a year ago, the Eagles were the preseason favorites to win the 2020-21 Big Sky Conference title. EWU won the league with a 16-4 record last season.
 
The Eagles will be led by Big Sky preseason player-of-the-year Jacob Davison who scored 18.4 points per game as a junior. EWU also returns junior Kim Aiken Jr. who led the league with 9.7 rebounds per game while averaging 13.3 points.

Some families keeping Thanksgiving gatherings small, but report shows millions still plan to travel - 11Alive.com WXIA

dogol.indah.link

If you do plan to spend time with immediate family, medical experts say now- right now, 14 to 10 days out from Thanksgiving- is the time to start a quarantine.

ATLANTA — Thanksgiving is just two weeks away and the pandemic may put a dent in some plans. 

AAA reports the number of people traveling this year is expected to drop by at least 10 percent. AAA said it would have expected up to 50 million Americans to travel for Thanksgiving. However, that number could be lower because of the pandemic.

Medical experts said if you must travel, it's better to drive.

"Don't rely too much on airport coronavirus screenings. They can give you a false sense of security," said NBC News Senior Medical Correspondent Dr. John Torres. 

He pointed to a new report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention which shows temperature and symptom based screenings in airports, aren't very effective at catching people who may have COVID19. 

"Researches found on average only one case out of 85,000 travelers. So, we know that is a person isn't feeling sick or showing symptoms, they may still have COVID19."

If you do plan to spend time with immediate family, medical experts said now- 14 to 10 days out from Thanksgiving - is the time to start a quarantine. If you can’t, limit your interactions with other people as much as possible.

While some will inevitably travel, others like Brandon McClure plan to stay close to Atlanta this year.

"Occasionally we'll go to Virginia, most of those are elderly people so no, we're not traveling this year. Our immediate family is close by and they are within a couple miles away, so we're hoping for no rain that day so we can have an outdoor gathering."

Some, like Beth Carter are keeping their plans the same, but with less people.

"Everybody has their own families in their own locations and they're wanting to stay where they are and us as well. So, we're just pretty much do our immediate family here."

The nation’s top infectious disease doctor, Dr. Anthony Fauci told NBC News people tend to let their guards down around friends and family. But he said remember, asymptomatic people can spread the virus and to be aware of anyone in your household who is elderly or high risk.

Tips to consider before air travel this holiday season - Santa Clarita Valley Signal

dogol.indah.link

This holiday season will look a little different for many due to the pandemic. Some may host their annual get-togethers over Zoom, while others might opt for air travel.

If your plans require boarding a plane, consider taking a couple of steps to keep you and those around you safe.

For one, fewer flights are expected in the coming months as airlines have had to “shave off capacity to around 50%” when compared to 2019 figures, according to a September schedule and traffic report from airline analysis firm Official Aviation Guide. Forward bookings and schedules data showed that an estimated 37,700 had booked for November, a drop of 78% from that of last year for the same month.

Companies such as American Airlines announced a reduction of 86,000 flights for October, and Southwest Airlines reported a cut of 38,000 set for November and 55,000 for December. 

With remaining flights becoming potentially more in demand, health experts are recommending to consider traveling by car or staying home. 

“Travel increases your chance of getting and spreading COVID-19. Staying home is the best way to protect yourself and others from COVID-19,” read the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention website. 

Consider the risks 

With COVID-19 developments still ongoing and a vaccine yet to be developed, health experts are asking the public to consider travel risks in planning holiday activities this year. 

Are you or those that will travel with you at a higher risk of getting sick from coronavirus? How about those you will be visiting or members of your household upon your return? 

These are questions the CDC recommends one should ask before traveling. 

“If you get infected while traveling, you can spread the virus to loved ones when you return, even if you don’t have symptoms,” reads the center’s protocols on traveling. “Anyone can get very ill from the virus that causes COVID-19, but older adults and people of any age with certain underlying medical conditions are at increased risk for severe illness from COVID-19.”

In a five-level chart, the CDC has categorized travel activities, from transportation to food and lodging from the lowest risk to high risk. Flights with layovers, traveling on a cruise ship, eating inside a restaurant with little physical distancing and staying at shared spaces with multiple people outside one’s household — such as a hostel or shared hotel rooms — are considered among the most at-risk activities. Lower-risk alternatives include short trips by cars with household members only and staying at vacation rentals with those from your home unit. 

Research your destination 

COVID-19 guidelines per county, let alone at every state and country. Be sure to check out state, territorial, tribal and local public health websites for updated requirements, which can range from lesser or more restrictive dining protocols to requirements for recent travelers to stay home for up to 14 days. 

Say, for example, you are traveling to a different part of California, state Public Health officials recommend to frequently check local rules, as counties are changing between tiers in California’s four-tiered reopening blueprint and as firefighters continue to battle ongoing wildfires. 

“Know that local rules are constantly changing and may change even after you start your trip,” reads the state’s coronavirus website. 

Whether you’re traveling across the state or hosting family, visitcalifornia.com offers current travel alerts and a collection of local and regional tourism offices with pandemic-related updates to learn about or share with others. 

The site includes “travel sites that provide general travel information, as well as specially built COVID-19 update pages that offer (information) on hotels and restaurants, as well as event cancellations, transportation schedule changes (and) attraction openings.” 

For international travel, which could require mandatory testing or quarantine, visit the destination’s Offices of Foreign Affairs or Ministry of Health, and the U.S. Department of State, Bureau of Consular Affairs, Country Information site at travel.state.gov. 

Booking a flight 

When booking a flight, look into several measures that will help keep you and those around you safe, such as booking an earlier flight where fewer people are expected to gather at security lines and airport terminals and check out airlines’ seat blocking policies. 

Here are three to consider: 

• Alaska Airlines: Applicable through Nov. 30
• Southwest Airlines: Applicable through Nov. 30
• Delta Airlines: Applicable through Jan. 6, 2021

Before arriving at the airport, the Transportation Security Administration recommends learning about the protective measures for the screening process. Guidelines include that travelers practice six feet of distance, wear face coverings and be aware that they may have to adjust or remove their masks for ID verification, and travelers will be allowed one liquid hand sanitizer container of up to 12 ounces in carry-on bags.

How to stay safe when flying during Covid-19 - CNN

dogol.indah.link

(CNN) —  

Earlier in the pandemic, when my partner and I decided to spend six weeks in his hometown of Copenhagen, we knew the flight would be the most stressful part of the experience. Because Denmark was allowing citizens (like my partner) and their domestic partners (like me), we were lucky enough to be given a pass into Europe. That being said, hopping on an airplane was far more complicated and different than ever before.

Not only did we need to leave much earlier than we usually would, but many of the amenities travelers have grown used to — lounges, restaurants, bars — were closed. On the plane, there were no choices for meals; you were simply served what they offered you. (And you guessed it: No booze either for our six-hour red eye.)

Generally speaking, the overall energy for flying right now is stressful: People are worried about maintaining a proper distance; anytime someone coughs, everyone goes on high alert; and using the restroom was scary to say the least, with many high-touch areas to navigate. It makes the pleasure of air travel a little less exciting and a little more anxiety-driving.

Recently, there have been a few studies suggesting airplanes aren’t the coronavirus hotbeds you might expect. One from the US Department of Defense supports earlier research showing the ventilation systems on planes filter air efficiently and take out particles that could transmit viruses. However, this study hasn’t been peer reviewed and didn’t take into account other possible ways of transmission such as other passengers coughing and breathing in close proximity to you.

Although there’s some science that suggests taking a commercial flight shouldn’t be a problem with the proper precautions, we still think it’s a good idea to take some extra steps to lower the risk even further. Especially since cases in the US just surpassed 10 million and hospitalizations are at an all-time high.

If you’re planning to travel for the holidays, it’s important to think carefully and critically about what you put in your carry-on. Not only do you want to keep yourself safe and comfortable, but you also want to prepare to not have as many goods at your fingertips at the airport. Below, we spoke with doctors about how to pack and prepare in the age of Covid-19:

Coronavirus travel safety tips:

Bring a face shield or glasses

Though all airlines require a face covering to board, a face shield is another safe way to protect yourself. However, sometimes wearing an oversize, bulky plastic device for a few hours in a confined space doesn’t sound cozy.

That’s why Dr. Jennifer Haythe, a critical care cardiologist at Columbia University Center, suggests wearing glasses instead. Even if you don’t need a prescription and have perfect 20/20 vision, cheap frames can provide an additional barrier of protection, since Covid-19 may be communicated through droplets. And if you’re going for glasses, don’t forget some of our favorite anti-fog spray.

And lots of face masks

Among the most obvious necessities is a face mask, which can be either fabric or disposable. Keep in mind that it’s best to use a freshly washed or brand-new face mask every time. And in instances like this where you could be running quickly through an airport, the idea of a breathable face mask meant for exercise isn’t a bad idea either.

Don’t forget headphones to zone out

Since our red eye was poorly timed — departing at 5 p.m. on the East Coast and arriving at 7 a.m. in Denmark — we knew it wasn’t likely we’d be sleepy enough to catch z’s in the sky, so we prepared to watch movies by packing our own headphones. Sure, the airlines will provide these, but they may not be as hygienic as bringing a comfortable pair from your home, according to Dr. Nabeel Chaudhary of Manhattan Specialty Care. Oftentimes, wearing headphones and a mask for extended periods of time can get uncomfortable on your ears, so make sure to try out different kinds of headphones to see which is most comfortable to you. Big over-ear cans will go over your mask’s ear loops, and small buds can pop right into your ear, avoiding contact with any part of the mask.

If you want to watch movies on the seat-back screen, remember to bring headphones that will plug into the screen, since no airlines offer Bluetooth technology (yet). Or, if you have a set of bluetooth headphones you absolutely adore, you can snag an adapter to plug into the audio jack so you can stay wireless.

You’ll want a clean blanket

Once you’ve reached cruising altitude and the cabin pressure normalizes, you settle into your seat, only to suddenly feel freezing. The cool temperatures on a plane are part of the travel experience, but you may feel uneasy taking a blanket from a flight attendant during current circumstances.

And in some cases, airlines have stopped providing them to decrease possible contamination. To be on the safe side, Beverly Hills, California-based Dr. Shawn Nasseri says to bring your own travel blanket or scarf.

Layers of gloves to avoid touching

You can’t have too many gloves when you’re getting from point A to point B via plane, according to Haythe. She says one easy way to be cautious is to pack many pairs of gloves for the journey.

“Wear a few layers of gloves and peel them off as you go through the airport,” she continues. “Remove one pair after security, another after boarding and finally when you arrive at your seat.”

Lip balm to fight dehydration

If you’re someone who is constantly applying and reapplying lip balm, you may be doing more for your health and safety than you realize. As internal medicine urban health resident at Johns Hopkins Hospital Dr. Talía Robledo-Gil explains, airplanes are very dry places, and the dryness affects our moist mucus membranes. By applying balm or cream, we protect some of that moisture to prevent breaking down one of our respiratory systems of immunity.

Pack a water bottle to keep hydrated

Is there anything H20 can’t do? It’s essential — and something you want to think about while flying. Dr. Ralph E. Holsworth, the director of clinical and scientific research at Essentia Water, says hydration assists the first line of defense for the body, and it’s essential to keep our immune system strong.

“Mucus requires water for formation,” he says. “Every cavity in the body is lined with cells that produce mucus, including cells in the ears, nose, throat, lung and gastrointestinal tract.”

When we don’t have enough water in our system, we lose the ability to fight back against bacteria. Be sure to keep a water bottle on hand, and those with a straw are even better since you don’t have to remove your mask to take a sip.

And a way to organize important papers

Before Covid-19, you probably made sure to have your boarding pass downloaded on your phone and a copy of your passport in your email — just in case. Looking forward, though, Dr. Sarma Velamuri, the founder of the health care tech company Luminare, predicts health certifications may be part of the boarding process.

Not to be confused with immunity passports, which have been roundly panned, Velamuri recommends carrying proof you’ve conducted syndromic surveillance for 14 days and you’ve tested negative before flying. In other words, being hyper organized before a flight right now is essential. Because my partner and I had to prove we were, in fact, romantically involved, we carried a copy of our lease and domestic partner certificate.

Try this: Skydue Expanding File Folder ($7.99, originally $9.99; amazon.com)

Wear lots of layers

Much like bringing a blanket along for the trip, layers are an easy way to stay warm while up in the air. Be sure to grab a sweatshirt and a super comfy outfit before the flight, since chances are you’re even less comfortable grabbing a last-minute item from an airport shop.

Don’t forget hand sanitizer or soap

It’s been preached to us time and time again over the last eight months, but here’s another reminder: Wash your hands. Velamuri says this practice is more effective than hand sanitizer and should be prioritized during your travel day. Anytime you come in contact with high-touch areas, ensure you properly scrub with soap. And in the event the airplane or airport is running low, consider packing portable soap sheets to come in for a rescue.

Though having extra hand sanitizer (which should have at least 60% alcohol, according to the CDC) is never a bad idea either.

Correction: Virus Outbreak-Business Travel story - WQOW TV News 18

Business travel might never look the same in the wake of the coronavirus. Consulting firm McKinsey and Co. says it took international business travel five years to recover after the 2008 recession. But this time, the ease of videoconferencing could put a permanent dent in corporate trips. Many companies, like Dubai-based television station operator MBC Group, say they’ve been able to do business just as well online, so they’re unlikely to travel as much when the pandemic ends. That’s chilling new for hotels, airlines and others that rely on business travelers. Corporate travel represents 21% of all travel spending globally, according to the World Travel and Tourism Council.
