Travel During the COVID-19 Pandemic

Travel increases your chance of getting and spreading COVID-19 and staying home is the best way to protect yourself and others from COVID-19. Before you travel, consider whether COVID-19 is spreading at your destination. The more cases at your destination, the more likely you are to get infected during travel and spread the virus to others when you return. If you do travel, take steps to protect yourself and others during your trip including wearing a mask, avoiding close contact, washing your hands often, and avoiding contact with anyone who’s sick.
