HONG KONG/SINGAPORE — A long delayed travel bubble between Hong Kong and Singapore will begin on May 26, the two cities said on Monday, as they moved to re-establish overseas travel links and lift the hurdle of quarantine for visiting foreigners. Hong Kong residents can also only fly to Singapore at least 14 days after they have had two doses of COVID-19 vaccine. For Hong Kong, which has banned non-residents since March 2020, the deal with Singapore is its first bilateral resumption of travel ties with another city. Singapore has also been discussing an air travel bubble with Australia. Both Hong Kong and Singapore have brought the local virus situation largely under control compared with other developed cities.
