Hong Kong and Singapore’s "tourism bubble" will be launched soon, but some travel agencies have stated that due to the increase in air tickets, the price of the 5-day tour reaches 12,000 yuan.
Would it be cheaper to travel freely?
Excluding the air ticket and accommodation, the order is under the epidemic prevention arrangement, and it is found that if the stay is 4 days or more, the required test fee is as high as 3,000 yuan.
First of all, before departure, in addition to two doses of the new crown pneumonia vaccine, Hong Kong people must also go for a PCR nucleic acid test within 72 hours before boarding the plane.
If the test is done at the government's community testing center, the cost is the lowest, 240 yuan, and the cost is even higher for other medical institutions or private hospitals.
After arriving in Singapore, Hong Kong residents have to carry out tests at Singapore Airport. The cost is S$200 to S$300 (S$1,152 to S$1,728), and the valid time limit is 72 hours. If you stay here for more than 72 hours, you cannot rely on the test on arrival. As a result, when you get back to Hong Kong on the plane, you need to go to a local designated medical institution to do the test again, and the cost is similar.
After arriving in Hong Kong, you need to pay for a test at the airport, and the cost is 499 yuan.
