Online Resources and CDC Travel Guidelines to Assist with Travel Planning
Returning to Travel During a Pandemic
As the United States and countries across the globe reopen for travel, it’s important to understand your health risks as you consider traveling abroad. Refer to the CDC website to learn more. Please also check out the United States Department of State’s travel guidance webpage, where you can find general travel trips, country-specific guidance and updated travel-related advisories.
Since travel conditions are constantly evolving, please enroll in the Smart Traveler Enrollment Program (STEP) if you are planning a trip. STEP provides real-time updates on safety and security information from your destination county and allows your embassy or consulate to contact you in the case of an emergency.
