Hong Kong-Singapore air travel bubble to go on, with extra COVID-19 test on arrival in Singapore




SINGAPORE - Air travel bubble (ATB) flights between Singapore and Hong Kong will proceed as planned on Sunday (22 November), but all arriving passengers from Hong Kong will be required to take an additional COVID-19 Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) test at Changi Airport.


In a media release on Saturday, the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) said that the additional สมัครสล็อต requirement is a precautionary measure given the rise of COVID-19 cases in Hong Kong over the past few days, and is provided for under the Singapore-. Hong Kong ATB agreement.


“More cases are expected in Hong Kong over the next few days due to the emergence of new clusters. The Singapore and Hong Kong health authorities are in close contact and monitoring the situation, ”CAAS added in the media release.


Threshold will exceed if more than 22 unlinked cases in next 3 days.
Under the terms of the ATB agreement, the bubble will be suspended if the seven-day moving average of unlinked cases exceeds five per day.


The figure for Hong Kong is currently at 2.14. The threshold will be exceeded if there are more than 22 unlinked cases in Hong Kong over the next three days.


“This will trigger a two-day notice period, after which suspension will come into effect. Prevailing border measures - a 7-day Stay-Home Notice (SHN) in the case of travelers from Hong Kong - will then apply upon entry into Singapore, ”CAAS said.
