It is a hugely important moment that shows the world that safe international travel is possible, and paves the way for us to bring tourist flights to and from other markets. HKTB Executive Director Mr Dane Cheng said: “I am excited to see the resumption of travel between Hong Kong and Singapore. Together with our tourism partners, Singapore stands ready to welcome Hong Kong travellers to Singapore.” Singapore’s tourism industry has reinvented our offerings, with new products and experiences that will surprise visitors even if they have been to Singapore before. Singapore is well-equipped to handle the COVID-19 crisis, and with our strong track record, we are confident that Hong Kong travellers can explore Singapore with a peace of mind. STB Chief Executive Officer Mr Keith Tan said: “The Air Travel Bubble is a significant milestone that demonstrates the deep connections and close friendship between Singapore and Hong Kong. It demonstrates the close ties between the two destinations as well as a mutual commitment to provide visitors with a safe travel experience. The partnership between the STB and the HKTB is also the first between the two tourism boards. The Singapore-Hong Kong Air Travel Bubble (ATB) – a bilateral, all-purpose and quarantine-free arrangement – is a milestone for the global tourism industry, and paves the way for a safe resumption of international travel. The HKTB will take the opportunity to review Hong Kong’s tourism positioning and will continue to seek to attract high-yield visitors. Recently, seven major MICE events were confirmed, boosting confidence in Hong Kong’s ability to draw high-yield MICE visitors in future.Singapore, 11 November 2020 - The Singapore Tourism Board (STB) and the Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB) today announced a collaboration to welcome the launch of the Singapore-Hong Kong Air Travel Bubble, ahead of the departure of the first flights on 22 November 2020. “Looking ahead, COVID-19 has transformed the global tourism landscape, resulting in a new normal for the industry. It is anticipated that the Mainland, in particular the Greater Bay Area, and some short haul markets will be open for travel relatively soon and the HKTB is planning promotions and tactical offers targeting these markets, which will be launched immediately once cross-boundary travel resumes. In the meantime, we will continue to maintain Hong Kong’s presence in source markets through a variety of promotions and mega events. HKTB Chairman Dr YK Pang said, “The HKTB is working diligently on the ‘Open House Hong Kong’ platform. Locally, the HKTB is restarting promotions with the “Holiday at Home” campaign to create positive atmosphere in Hong Kong and encourage consumption. In response to recent positive progress in the Hong Kong SAR Government’s discussions with other destinations on forming travel bubbles, the Hong Kong Tourism Board (HKTB) is gradually resuming promotions in the local and source markets, reviving tourism through a combination of short-term and long-term strategies.
