Flag carrier Philippine Airlines (PAL) said Wednesday that more of its overseas destinations are now on the government’s “green list” or areas deemed low risk for COVID-19 transmission.
The overseas destinations are the following:
• Indonesia (Jakarta)
• Hong Kong SAR, China (Hong Kong)
• Mainland China
• Japan (Tokyo Haneda, Tokyo Narita, Fukuoka, Osaka Kansai, Nagoya)
• Saudi Arabia (Dammam, Riyadh)
• Taiwan (Taipei)
• United Arab Emirates (Dubai)
The green list classification will result in the easing of quarantine protocols for PAL passengers traveling from these countries, the airline said in an advisory. The latest classification came into effect on November 16 and will run until November 30.
The airline said that fully vaccinated individuals from green areas need only to adhere to the following testing and quarantine protocols:
For fully vaccinated Filipinos (any of the following options):
* Present a negative RT-PCR test result taken within 72 hours prior to departure from the country of origin, in which case the traveler will no longer be required to undergo a facility-based quarantine (but is highly encouraged to self-monitor for any symptoms until the 14th day after arrival) or
* Take an RT-PCR test upon arrival, and undergo a facility-based quarantine only until the release of a negative test result
For fully vaccinated foreign nationals:
* Must present a negative RT-PCR test result within 72 hours prior to departure from the origin country; and will no longer be required to undergo a facility-based quarantine (but is highly encouraged to self-monitor for any symptoms until the 14th day after arrival)
“We will continue to monitor any new updates on the easing of travel or entry requirements. We also look forward to being able to fly from cities in mainland China in the near future, subject to all the necessary government approvals,” PAL said.
“Rest assured that we will continue to add more flights on international routes to better serve the travel needs of our customers in the coming weeks,” it said. — VBL, GMA News
