Nearly half a year after its original launch date, the long-awaited Singapore-Hong Kong travel bubble has finally received the approval from both governments to go ahead on May 26.
According to an April 26 statement by Singapore s Ministry of Transport, the travel bubble will have a cautious start, with just one flight a day in each direction and passengers capped at 200 passengers on each flight for the first two weeks. These designated flights will be stepped up to two per day starting June 10 if the Covid-19 situation remains stable, with another increase by June 26 should both cities report no further outbreaks, said an anonymous source in a Straits Times report.
(MENAFN - Asia Times) Hong Kong s tourism and retail sectors are to be revitalized soon as a travel bubble scheme with Singapore will begin in late May while mainlanders may visit the territory without being quarantined.
The Hong Kong government announced on Monday that the long-awaited scheme with Singapore will start on May 26 at the earliest. Under the agreement, residents will be allowed to travel between the cities on designated flights without the need to quarantine.
Travelers are required to test negative for Covid-19 within 72 hours before they fly. They will also undergo another coronavirus test on arrival. However, Hong Kong participants will have to be fully vaccinated, except those under 16 or unsuitable for vaccination on medical grounds. Their counterparts in Singapore will be free from such requirement.
