Most airports had the opportunity to obtain masks through federal funding to provide to airport employees and tenants, as well as passengers. Wearing a mask or face covering is necessary in high-risk areas with limited spacing where social distancing cannot be maintained. Face coverings can be temporarily removed as part of the airlines&#8217; check-in processes, Transportation Security Administration (TSA) or Customs and Border Protection (CBP) screening, or other instances where identification was required. Individuals were allowed to temporarily remove masks to eat, drink, take medication, or engage in personal hygiene activities with the proper social distancing of six feet or more.<\/p><\/section>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e053282 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"e053282\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<section>\n<h2>Traveler Screening Policies<\/h2>\n<h3>International Passenger Screening<\/h3>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 20px;padding-bottom: 12px !important\">There are no major screening requirements as of November 2025.

In the case of the COVID-19 pandemic, temperature screening, questionnaires, and&nbsp;<span style=\"font-size: 1rem\">actual testing were used to screen international passengers upon entry to the United States. Some airports partnered with local emergency medical services (EMS) to screen international travelers. Some airlines implemented a COVID-19 testing program for passengers flying to and from certain international destinations. This program required passengers to be tested by a private company before boarding and only passengers who tested negative would be allowed to board the flight. In line with best practices, passengers who tested positive would undergo additional testing for either clearance or denial of boarding.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/section>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-198ede8 elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"198ede8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<section id=\"Vaccination\"><h2 class=\"bucket1\">Vaccination Requirement Policies<\/h2><h3>Vaccination<\/h3><p style=\"padding-left: 20px;padding-bottom: 12px !important\">Airlines currently focus on encouraging, but not requiring, vaccintions among employees.
