Can I upgrade my economy flight with Etihad to the USA at the airport?

Bob ***********

Many airlines will let you do that at the counter. The trick will be is anything available. Maybe try calling the airlines and asking? Also when you check in see if they will let you change your economy seat to an unoccupied row. When I flew out here I did that and had a whole row to myself.....laid out and slept!

What companies can you recommend for Covid testing when traveling, and what's the difference between RT-PCR and PCR tests?

Bob ***********

It seems every place (internationally vs locally) has different requirements. It's best to get from the source what is required. (For example to travel to Thailand I needed an Rt-PCR test but to return to the USA an Antigen is also acceptable.)

What is the 72-hour RT-PCR timeline for traveling to Thailand?

very true! One place didn't even put the type of test. I had to call the lab and request they put the type of test (PCR vs Antigen, etc)..they didn't understand why I needed that info!
