JustAnotherHun Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I think it's up to the country you're going to and the airline you use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phetphet Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 (edited) Best to check the government website for the country you are going to. For the UK (England) at the moment, for fully vaccinated from non red countries a day 2 and a day 8 test is required. Arrival day being day zero. That changes from 11th Feb to no test required. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/travel-to-england-from-another-country-during-coronavirus-covid-19 The other thing to check the airline you are flying with. They may have their own specific requirements. Edited February 1, 2022 by phetphet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Hammer2021 Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 A very good question to which I sought an answer months ago. Can airlines request PCR tests independent of national requirements? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Monday Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 18 minutes ago, The Hammer2021 said: A very good question to which I sought an answer months ago. Can airlines request PCR tests independent of national requirements? Country of destination rules Country of transit requirement I guarantee you could fly from Bangkok to Mexico city on All Nippon Airways via Narita airport without any requirement for covid-19 testing. Japan does not require tests for transit passengers. ANA uses the rules of the country of destination and Mexico has NO RULES The airlines want people to fly. and are not intessted in imposing addditional restrictions. EVA, CATHAY, Emirates? may appear they are imposing a test requirement mostly because of the State authorities they are operating under requiring PCR/Ag testing for transit passengers. Hong Kong is not allowing hardly any transit at all right now. If I was leaving Bangkok for the US now I would prefer to fly to Frankfurt, Stockholm, or Zurich on a one way ticket spend one night in Hotel. Then get a test there, before flying to US. Avoid chance of being thrown in a paid covid prison in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
