Singapore will allow Australians (Victorians) to spend a holiday and make a stopover in the popular city-state starting next week, but the ad comes with a trap.
Singapore’s Transport Minister Ong Ye Kung announced the exciting progression on Facebook, describing the resolution as “resurrecting Changi Airport. “
However, it is not known how many Australians will be able to advance the progression, as anyone who needs to leave the country at this time will have to receive a government exemption to travel.
Tourists will also have to pay another $3,000 for their two-week hotel quarantine when they return to Australia.
Despite all this, Singapore was excited by the announcement of the city’s civil aviation authority, calling the “import risk” low.
Visitors to Vietnam will be able to spend their holidays in Singapore on the same day as Australians.
Visitors to Brunei and New Zealand received last month when Singapore tries to reactivate its airport.
Anyone arriving at Changi Airport will need to perform a coronavirus check upon arrival and download the traceTogether touch seek app from Singapore.

Singapore will reopen to Australia next week.
Travelers will also want to apply for an air pass “seven to 30 days before the scheduled date of access to Singapore,” according to the government’s SafeTravel website.
Australians can get the pass from today, October 1.
Visitors will also need to have a reservation in a non-residential place, such as a hotel, and without delay after passing the coronavirus control at the airport, take a personal shipment to their place of residence.
The guest will have to isolate themselves at the hotel until the fitness government notifys them that their check is negative, allowing them to explore Singapore as a tourist.
Visitors are also encouraged to pay for the coronavirus prior to arrival, which costs S$300 ($306 A).
Addressing social media, Mr. Ye Kung praised Vietnam and Australia.
“Like Brunei and New Zealand, Vietnam and Australia have also been able to spread the COVID-19 virus,” he said.
M. Ye Kung had spoken to Deputy Prime Minister Michael McCormack, who “appreciated Singapore’s decision. “
“And when the situations are right, they will consider reciprocating the lifting of restrictions on Singapore’s travelers,” he added.
Borders will open to Australians from 8 October, but pass programs are open from today.
Singapore has recorded more than 57,000 cases, but only 27 coronavirus deaths and is one of the world leaders in its reaction to the pandemic.
