Although we’ve been exploring the theme parks since they’ve re-opened, travel these days is looking A LOT different.

Airports have installed PPE vending machines, while the TSA has put new precautionary measures in place for passengers and employees to follow. However, not all travel is possible right now in accordance with government officials.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection Commissioner Mark Morgan has stated that the restrictions on non-essential travel at the borders have been extended through October 21st.

The CBP itself has provided more information on what these restrictions entail. Currently, essential travel includes circumstances like U.S. citizens and lawful permanent residents returning to the country, individuals traveling for essential work or to attend educational institutions, people working on official government or diplomatic situations, and more.
