Traveling During COVID-19? Here’s What You Need to Know Before You Go
有理由认为,我们大多数人不助教ke advice from those without experience. Thankfully if you’re looking to travel during Covid-19, you don’t have to fret because there are plenty of advisors who “have been there and done that” recently and are willing to share all they’ve learned.
这是他们的首选:
1. Stay informed
有了有关测试要求和文档几乎每天按目的地更改的信息,确保您收集或喂养准确,及时的信息的最佳方法是依靠您的旅行顾问。这些专家一直在努力工作,以确保他们拥有最新和事实的旅行协议和限制。他们并不孤单。旅行社的合作伙伴以及目的地和承运人本身,不断向旅行顾问简要介绍航空公司和目的地的地位,使他们成为所有知识的守护者。beplay银行卡在网上进行自己的研究似乎是一个好主意,但如果您被带到欺骗和错误信息的道路上,可能会证明是灾难性的。哦,顺便说一句,您可能已经在网上阅读的所有规则:明天或至少在您准备离开时,它们可能会更改。
宾夕法尼亚州Bluebell的Wings Travel的分支机构经理Sue Burns说,她最大的担忧是确保旅行者在旅行前拥有所有适当的文书工作。一些顾问,例如伯恩斯(Burns),正在旅行前向其客户链接和印刷表格发送,因此没有任何惊喜。
伯恩斯强调说:“作为旅行顾问,您作为旅行顾问的作业避免了您的客户的任何问题。”
2. Social distancing is the new normal
在Covid-19-19旅行期间获胜的原因有很多,并且严格遵守社会距离的原因很高。渴望上路但仍然对健康和安全措施感到焦虑的旅行者可以放心,顾问将建议的大多数目的地和度假胜地都将竭尽全力赢得他们的信任。beplay银行卡此外,一些运营商已将批准类型的程序放置在适当的位置,因此尚未访问特定财产但可以放心的旅行顾问满足了旅行伙伴所需的所有标准。
“情况肯定发生了变化,”德克萨斯州赛普拉斯的诺斯库特旅行社的Shayla Northcutt说,在过去的几个月中,他一直在多次旅行,在酒店和现场检查期间仔细研究了数十家物业。“在如此紧张的时期,客人之间的距离非常有帮助,度假村的清洁程度也是如此。如果您想保持距离并知道一旦对每个房间进行了消毒,他们就可以保持距离,这真是太好了。”
Northcutt还承认了其他变化,最初对新的Covid-19旅客来说可能会令人惊讶,但正如她所指出的那样,只能被视为积极的。
“如果您在度假胜地,可能会有自助餐,但会为您服务。或者有些度假胜地可能会让您订购菜单(有些带有QR码),但是在许多属性中,他们选择了这一点,但您仍然可以随心所欲地吃饭。从长远来看,这只是另一种健康预防措施,它将使人们更安全。”
Steven Eidelberg, director of marketing and partnerships for Cruise Brothers, based in Vero Beach, Florida, recently returned from his first familiarization trip to Mexico during Covid-19 and said he was “pleasantly surprised” at how seriously everyone was taking the health and safety protocols. “It eases people’s minds. I couldn’t have had a better experience not only being at the resort but also the transfers from the airport with how [the handlers] wiped down the luggage and wore masks. I was very impressed.”
3. There are no exceptions
Running a slight fever? Have a covid test result that you think is permissible but not quite sure if it makes the grade? In the days of Covid-19 travel it’s critical travelers understand that the rules don’t bend. Don’t head to the airport if you are running a temperature because you will be checked and denied boarding (even if it’s not covid-related). Don’t assume your particular covid test is acceptable to the airline or the destination you’re traveling to, unless your travel advisor has confirmed it is the appropriate test. Did you know some destinations require that the consulate provide permission for you to gain entry? All of these requirements are critical to you safely and effectively making it to your final destination. Why leave it to chance when you can consult an expert?
4. Preparing to fly
Mask requirements from the time you leave home to your final destination can change dramatically. Trying to navigate the dos and don’ts can certainly be overwhelming, not to mention the anxiety it can create. For example, from the time you step on to the airplane, your mask needs to fully cover both your nose and mouth and remain there. Lack of adherence to this rule can result in removal from the plane or your name added to a “blacklist” of travelers that carriers will ban from their aircraft indefinitely.
尤为轻松的是,俄亥俄州阿克伦的无限假期和游轮的总裁兼所有者朱莉·米勒(Julie Miller)分享了她关于飞行的建议。“您必须有一个舒适的面具,因为您必须在整个飞行过程中戴上它。这就像您在整个欧洲走路之前不购买一双鞋子的方式。不要在前一天购买口罩。另外,请务必打包多个口罩,因为在[目的地]时可能需要穿6或7件,并且无法洗涤它们。”
在其他机场更新中,米勒补充说,旅行者应注意某些终端的食物的可用性不是过去的样子。一些曾经开放的餐馆和食品服务设施现在仅提供有限的时间。在这里外卖?在离开机场之前打包零食或进食来准备。
最后,随着越来越多的承运人开始摆脱中间座位的打开,旅行者应注意,特殊的安全措施即将到期。截至发稿时,达美航空和阿拉斯加仍然是唯一在2021年初保持该政策的载体。
5.规则有所不同……请跟随他们
Travelers should be mindful that mask protocols are as changing as the wind, depending upon the property you choose to book. However, your travel advisor knows the drill and will be sure to inform you where and when it needs to be worn. For example, at many resorts, advisors reported back that masks were required in the lobby but not poolside or on the beach. Bottom line: listen to your advisor and you’ll be an educated traveler.
Eidelberg说:“我们的客户并没有措手不及,因为我们的工作是让他们了解情况。”
6.保险不再是可选的
虽然可以做到,但不建议在Covid-19期间旅行,而没有某种保险范围。旅行顾问向客户提供强烈的建议,即使在某些情况下,除非他们同意至少获得最少的保险单,否则他们也不会为客户预订旅行。上升空间?除传统提供商外,许多运营商和目的地现在还提供自己的保险单,使得在Covid-19期间获得承保范围更加实惠beplay银行卡和方便。
7.在Covid-19期间旅行仍然充实
尽管今天的旅行景观有所不同,但是一旦您咨询了顾问并检查了所有这些物品,一件事仍然是持续的:一个神话般的假期等待。TMR与有个人机会体验旅行的所有顾问最近以积极的反馈回来了。
“I think getting away from it all now more than ever might feel more like a vacation. Just to have that time to reset,” said Miller. “During the times I was traveling, I found my regular life to be much more disruptive than my vacation life. I think that was more of a normal experience, which was more relaxing.”
And for travelers wondering if the checklist is worth it?
“我发送的每个客户,即使他们必须经过篮筐获得许可或测试才能获得入学,也回来了100%,很高兴他们做到了。我没有任何投诉!”伯恩斯说。
