The Singapore-Hong Kong Travel Bubble is back on and we can’t wait to taste the Dim Sum and visit the happiest place on Earth. But before we pack our suitcases, here are some important stuff travellers should know before booking that trip.

Before your flight, you’ll need to fulfil the following:
1) Fill up an online declaration form 48 hours before arriving in Hong Kong
2) Install Hong Kong’s LeaveHomeSafe app before departing
3) Book and take your pre-departure and on-arrival COVID swab test.
Only travellers who test negative can board the flight. And upon arrival in Hong Kong, you can only leave the airport after getting negative on the second swab test.
Stricter Travel Bubble Conditions Between Singapore and Hong Kong
Only those who have remained in either Singapore or Hong Kong 14 days before departure are eligible for ATB flights. This excludes time spent in quarantine or on stay-home notice.
In addition, the travel bubble will be suspended if the seven-day moving average of unlinked community cases in either city is more than five.

The travel bubble is exciting news for all of us — especially those who cancelled their plans last November when the travel bubble got deferred.
