Exclusive Tips from Wukong Car Rental: Precautions for Travel and Return During the Pandemic

What arrived before Santa Claus turned out to be the resurgence of the pandemic. Beijing's epidemic situation is trending again, as an outbreak in the Changping district led to shutdowns of entertainment venues in Chaoyang and Haidian districts, with other areas gradually tightening prevention measures.

Compared to 2020, the good news is that our prevention and testing systems have weathered repeated challenges. Everything is proceeding in an orderly manner—no panic, no lockdowns, and life goes on.

But some people still need to travel for work or essential needs. Wukong Car Rental is here to summarize protective measures and precautions to take during the pandemic.

n Stay informed about local policies to avoid being turned away

During the Wuhan lockdown, many people were stranded on highways due to policies allowing only outbound travel from the destination city, leaving them stuck for weeks.

Now, as outbreaks resurge in various places, prevention levels and policies are constantly being adjusted. So, drivers using Wukong Car Rental must check the policies and updates of their destination in advance to stay aware of the epidemic situation and avoid being trapped on the road.

n Stock up on travel supplies and minimize contact with the outside

If traveling long distances by car, prepare ample supplies for food, clothing, shelter, and transportation inside the vehicle, such as disinfecting wipes, alcohol, bottled water, bread, sausages, and other food. This helps handle emergencies, allowing you to survive even without leaving the car.

Before departure, fill up the gas tank to avoid fuel shortages due to closed gas stations or highway congestion.

n Check attraction policies and keep windows open for ventilation

Most trips with Wukong Car Rental are short-term rentals for leisure. Before traveling, ensure that no companions are from medium- or high-risk areas, and that others postpone trips to such areas. Check the epidemic situation and updates at tourist attractions in advance, following the principle of 'no reservation, no travel'.

When multiple people are in the car, maintain disinfection and ventilation. To protect travelers' safety, Wukong Car Rental is offering a limited-time free COVID-19 protection add-on for worry-free travel.

During pandemic prevention and control, protecting yourself also means safeguarding those around you. Wukong Car Rental wishes to accompany you on safe journeys in these special times, ensuring travel safety and the best state of mind.
