SINGAPORE – Singapore is expected to announce its first air travel bubble with Hong Kong, sources told The Straits Times.

This means that people will be able to travel between the two locations without the need to be quarantined, subject to conditions including testing negative for Covid-19.

ST understands there will be testing for Covid-19 on both Singapore and Hong Kong grounds either pre-departure or post-arrival, as well as “bubble” flights or designated flights that do not carry transit passengers.   

It is understood that the key features of the agreement have largely been laid out but details as to when it will start or where and when the double testing for the virus are to take place, remain to be worked out.

Hong Kong is the 10th place that Singapore has made special travel arrangements with.
