ORIGINAL POSTERHello… has anyone flown Singapore airlines to bkk from the uk? If so, is a RT-PCR test within 48 hours all you need. It’s impossible to get any info from the airline
TLDR : Answer Summary
The inquiry involves traveling from the UK to Bangkok (BKK) on Singapore Airlines, specifically asking about the necessity of a RT-PCR test within 48 hours for entry into Thailand. Community responses indicate that more is required beyond just a COVID test to enter Thailand, suggesting there are additional travel regulations. Users express their experiences and frustrations with gathering information from the airline.

Take a pre-departure Covid-19 test
Most travellers, including Singapore citizens and permanent residents, transiting through Singapore will be required to take a pre-departure Covid-19 test within two days of their flight to Singapore.
The test must be taken at a recognised or accredited clinic, laboratory, or medical facility. Please note that self-administered pre-departure Covid-19 tests will not be accepted for transit through Singapore.

ORIGINAL POSTER@Eddie *****

@Carl *******
Singapore Airlines just says any test that is government accredited is ok.. and for entry into Singapore pre depature can be a lateral flow but may need different for Thailand entryCarl ********

it isn't going to list every provider worldwide is it. It would be one hell of a long list. Besides I cannot understand anyone flying to Singapore to get to bkk try looking at at a map. You will have flown over Bkk to get to SingaporeSteven ******
@Eddie *****
mate, the latter part of your post is a load of nonsense. I'm sure there's a perfectly good reason why anyone would choose a certain route.Reply to

You mean to enter Thailand? No, you need a lot more to enter Thailand than just a covid test.

24 hrs in a day x 2 = 48 hrs or 2 days
