You click through a series of questions, then it gives advice.
Some of those questions include:
- Are you flying with children?
- Are you part of a vulnerable population?
- Why are you traveling? For pleasure, or out of necessity?
Even if you get the virtual go-ahead, the New York Times asks you to consider the health of those you may come in contact with during and after your travels - anyone from the gas station attendants to friends and family.
And anyone traveling should wear a mask and maintain social distancing.

But the CDC clearly states that "travel increases your chance of getting and spreading COVID-19. Staying home is the best way to protect yourself and others from the coronavirus."
