If you want to safely explore the world during this time of uncertainty, planning ahead, following travel tips and being overly cautious is key. Keep in mind that many places in the world have travel advisories in place. For example, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention warns that international travel is not advised, and domestic travel is strongly cautioned against.

There are many states and countries, too, including Maine and Hawaii, that require 14-days of quarantine after travel, while others (like New York) have a long list of states that are not permitted to travel there without a two-week isolation period.

That said, travel is good for your mental and physical health - and in many cases, travel (such as in the case of attending funerals or other events) is an absolute necessity. Therefore, if you’re going to travel during the coronavirus pandemic, don’t panic or stress - but instead, plan intelligently so that you can feel better about getting out and about as the restrictions lift.

Follow these travel tips, and you’ll stay safe and healthy.
