Reducing Risks During of Summer Holiday Travel

The July 4th weekend celebrations were tempered by the lessons learned from Covid-19 compliance challenges we experienced during the Memorial Day weekend activities. This holiday weekend seemed to usher in a new dynamic for beaches, parks, bars, outdoor clubs, restaurants and travel with mixed messages from community leaders. Airlines began to focus on adding more flights both domestically and internationally; some started filling all seats on planes.

Aids to safe travel provided by our Greeters

The holiday uptick in the passenger activity at Newark (EWR) airport, a key international travel hub in the New York region, was partially the result of some international flights being allowed to depart for the first time in month. Some flights required the aid of foreign consulate officials verifying Covid-19 test results, nurses taking temperatures and special transit entry authorization for certain countries before passengers are allowed to complete check in.

As travel continues to evolve during the remainder of this summer season, please remember to seek the latest information from the CDC and to refer to the various travel advisories from local and international organizations such as AAA, the airlines, municipal websites, Consulate or Embassy websites and the State Department. Continue to follow guidelines like wearing a face mask in public places, practicing proper hygiene by washing hands frequently and using sanitizer and keeping six feet apart when communicating or waiting in line for various services. Enjoy the remainder of the summer; it’s never too early to plan a safe and fun-filled Labor Day weekend for you and your friends & family. If you choose to travel by train or by air, let us help you with greeter service & travel aids! Happy Safe Summer Fun!

How to Travel Safely in our New Environment

June 24, 2020

As air travel continues to resume in the U.S. and worldwide, Air General Traveler Services remains committed to providing a “touchless” experience for our passengers to the extent possible.

Although the FAA has not mandated the use of protective face coverings during flights, individual airlines are issuing guidelines for passengers. Some airlines such as American, United and Delta are now requiring passengers to wear face coverings during their flights. Certain airports are requiring that face masks be worn in the terminals, and the rules for going through TSA security have been adjusted to require less touching of document. Our Greeters will make every attempt to inform the passengers prior to their flights of any restrictions that are in place at their location.

We highly recommend to our passengers that they follow the Center for Disease Control guidance on travel.

This information is updated daily so we would advise that you check with your Air Carrier and the CDC immediately before commencing travel. Air General Greeters will wear face masks, report their health status prior to arriving at the airport or train station, and will provide hand sanitizers or guide you to hand sanitizer stations.

Let Us Help You Start Traveling Again

June 9, 2020

Air General Traveler Services provides Greeters at many airports and train stations across the USA. Our latest offering is at LaGuardia Airport Terminal B, which hosts American Airlines, United Airlines, Southwest Airlines and Air Canada. These airlines combine to help make LaGuardia Airport the busiest airport in the country without transatlantic service.

At airports including Chicago O’Hare International Airport (ORD), Dallas Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and many others, we offer services to customers traveling on domestic and international flights. Our Greeters try to maintain a “touchless” concierge service to keep travelers safe as we escort them on their journey through the airport, assisting with check-in, baggage, shopping, security and lounges.

Air General Traveler Services Greeters provides support for all travelers, including those making a connection at the airport or train station. Whether you are flying on vacation or looking after new business dealings and new adventures, let our Greeters meet you for a seamless transportation process. Air General Greeters are able to provide a smooth transition from one flight to another, one terminal to another and even one airport to another or into town. Travelers needing extra assistance – from support with hand baggage, wheelchair assistance, even language translations – can rely on our Greeters with confidence.
