Singapore tourism bubble.

    Singapore's "tourist bubble" could take over Thailand, South Korea and Japan in the near future. But any decision is likely to depend on the effectiveness of these countries' COVID-19 control, rather than the pursuit of tourism revenue, tourism experts say.

    Travel bubble between Singapore and Hong Kong The air travel bubble between Singapore and Hong Kong will begin on November 22. There is one flight to both cities with 200 passengers one way. From December 7, two flights will start flying.

    Travelers must have tested negative for COVID-19. There will be no restrictions on the purpose of the trip. There will be no movement control, quarantine or other notifications. Two key factors for the Singapore-Hong Kong "travel bubble" were effective control of the virus and the ability to successfully negotiate.

    “Travelers will have to get used to the new rules and swabs for COVID-19. All of this is part and parcel of the new normal.

    ”Who's next? Countries that currently have a "green corridor" with Singapore for important business and official trips can count on participating in a tourist exchange. These include South Korea, Japan and China. Singapore received visitors from these countries, which made it possible to assess the intensity of infection there, as well as the effectiveness of the authorities' fight against infections. This experience will help you make an informed decision about including these countries on your travel list.

    While the demand for travel is definitely there, experts noted that many are still on the fence, given the widespread nature of the pandemic.While the desire to travel persists, the cost of flying abroad can also dampen demand. Today, not only air tickets have risen in price. When planning a trip, you should take into account the considerable cost of all the necessary tests for COVID-19. But still there is a demand for foreign trips. Many people really need to run away from home, but they just don't know where to go. They have nowhere to go.
