If you’ve decided to no longer postpone your summer travel plans, keep these things in mind before heading to the airport. Wear your face mask and wash your hands before and after any touchpoints. While the CDC still recommends keeping a 6-foot distance, that’s nearly impossible to do on a flight. The good news is that most viruses don’t spread easily on flights because of the way air circulates and is filtered on planes.
