Traveling safely and wisely with UnionBank CEG GetGo Debit Card

The relaxed quarantine restrictions have given us more room to navigate through the new normal. Travel bans are slowly being lifted but there is still a great need to stay careful, take precautions, and follow protocols. Here are some tips for traveling in the new normal.

Travel by land

Ready for a road trip? Here are some things you’ll need to know:

Consider the size of your car

The IATF ruling on passengers states that a privately-owned car can seat one passenger in the front and two passengers per row of front-facing seats. This means that if you and your barkada want to travel together, you may need a car with a bigger capacity.

Always wear your face mask and face shield

Yes, that means while riding the vehicle too! If you are carrying other passengers in the car, you still need to wear your face mask. However, if this is a solo trip, wearing a face mask is only mandatory when you open your windows. Plenty of establishments require you to wear a face shield too since this is considered to be part of basic protocols.

Find out destination protocols

Some cities and baranggays may have requirements for visitors. Make sure you know what to bring. Check for swab test or quarantine requirements that they may ask for.

Have a well-planned itinerary

Some locations may have strict operating hours or curfew. It is best to plan your trips so that you can maximize your vacations!

Be prepared to take a swab test

Depending on the baranggay and city you are coming to and from, you may need to take a swab test. Each location is different so it is important to research these beforehand.

Check for quarantine requirements

Certain destinations may require a quarantine period. To schedule your trip, find out if you need to set aside some days for quarantine and make sure to book your hotel accommodation in advance if needed.

Read departure protocols

Wearing a face mask and a face shield are necessary from your departure in the airport until you arrive to your destination. There are also other safety measures you need to brush up on such as checking in early and the various contactless procedures before and after you fly.

Travel restrictions have eased but being a responsible traveler is a must. Take note of these safety precautions so that you can wander wisely.
