Hong Kong and Singapore began to implement the Travel Bubble on May 26, and travelers do not need to be isolated when traveling between the two places.
In addition to Hong Kong and Sin Chew, some countries have also grasped that the new coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) epidemic has eased, opened up borders and restarted tourism.
Some of them require passengers to undergo virus testing, vaccinations against the new crown, and take exclusive flights.
The following is a brief introduction of tourism bubbles in various places:
The "tourism bubble" between Hong Kong and Singapore has dragged on again and again, and is finally set to take effect on May 26.
However, there are still confirmed cases of new crown pneumonia in Singapore and Hong Kong. The governments of the two places can only hope that nothing will go wrong before the measures are implemented.

The tourism bubble was launched on May 26, and there are no restrictions on the purpose of travel between the two places.
Passengers must be tested for the virus within 72 hours before departure and get a negative result, and they must also be tested after arriving at the local area.
Hong Kong residents must be vaccinated with 2 doses of the new crown vaccine at least 14 days before they can leave for Singapore.
Bloomberg said on the same day that Singapore does not require vaccinations for travelers departing from the country.
Passengers have to take exclusive flights to and from the two places. When the tourism bubble started, one flight each day arrived in Hong Kong and Singapore, and each flight could carry up to 200 people.
