Traveling in Times of Coronavirus
Re: Traveling in Times of Coronavirus
I actually miss traveling in times of Coronavirus...quiet, empty airports and planes, cheap upgrades offered on every single flight. Yea, there were some cons, but if well organised not difficult in most cases.
Now back to pre-COVID times of travel...flights and airports are jam packed, very rarely offered upgrades, flights are often overbooked therfore some people who had bookings miss out. Reminds me again of why I hate flying, time to find a different career

SINGAPORE: Singapore will scrap all COVID-19 border measures from next Monday (Feb 13), when the country steps down its disease alert to its lowest level.
This is due to the improving pandemic situation globally and the low impact of imported cases on Singapore's healthcare capacity, said the Ministry of Health on Thursday.
The country will also remove almost all of its existing COVID-19 restrictions, such as requiring masks on public transportation.
Once the border measures are scrapped, all travellers, including those who are not vaccinated, will not have to show proof of a negative pre-departure test before entering Singapore.Non-vaccinated visitors will also no longer have to purchase COVID-19 travel insurance.
Still, Singapore is prepared to reintroduce restrictions under its Vaccinated Travel Framework if there are "international developments of concern", the ministry said. This includes the emergence of new severe variants or signs of Singapore's healthcare system coming under strain from imported cases.
Travellers will also continue to be screened for infectious diseases such as Yellow Fever, Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) and Ebola. All travellers, including Singapore residents, will also still have to submit a health declaration via the SG Arrival Card e-service when entering the country.

HONG KONG: Hong Kong will drop its COVID-19 mask mandate, chief executive John Lee said on Tuesday (Feb 28), in a move to lure back visitors and business and restore normal life more than three years after stringent rules were first imposed in the financial hub.
The measure will take effect from Wednesday, Lee told a press briefing. The special administrative region of Hong Kong is one of the last places globally that still imposes a mask mandate.
Neighbouring special administrative region Macao, said on Feb 26 that it would drop COVID-19-related mask requirements for most locations, except for public transportation, hospitals and a handful of other areas.

Yet Philippines Airlines insist you wear masks onboard and you won't get into an airport without one. However, if you take it off while in the airport, nobody says anything.

Making decisions takes time. Telling everyone about those decisions, even longer.

WASHINGTON, March 7 (Reuters) - The US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) is set to end on Friday (Mar 10) mandatory COVID-19 tests for travellers from China, joining other countries in dropping the requirements, a source briefed on the matter told Reuters.
