CORONAVIRUS TRAVEL ADVICE

Before You Travel

Make sure to plan ahead:

• Get up to date with your COVID-19 vaccines before you travel.
  • Find out when you can get your booster and where to get a vaccine or booster.
  • COVID-19 vaccines are effective at protecting people—especially those who are boosted— from getting seriously ill, being hospitalized, and even dying.
• Check the current COVID-19 Community Level at your destination.
  • If traveling to an area with high or medium COVID-19 Community Levels, and you are, live with, or are visiting someone who is at higher risk of getting very sick, learn how to protect yourself and them.
• Make sure you understand and follow all state, tribal, local, and territorial travel restrictions, including proper mask wearing, proof of vaccination, or testing requirements.
  • For up-to-date information and travel guidance, check the state, tribal, local and territorial health department’s website where you are, along your route, and where you are going.
• If traveling by air, check if your airline requires any testing, vaccination, or other documents.
• Prepare to be flexible during your trip as restrictions and policies may change during your travel.
• If you have a weakened immune system or are at increased risk for severe disease, take multiple prevention steps to provide additional layers of protection from COVID-19 even if you are up to date with your COVID-19 vaccines.
  • Talk to your healthcare provider about your risk before travel and consider delaying travel to areas with high COVID-19 Community levels. Even if you are up to date, you should know what precautions to take.
