SINGAPORE – Flights from Singapore to Hong Kong have sold out after the relaunch of an air travel bubble slated to start on May 26 was announced.

This travel arrangement will finally allow long-delayed quarantine-free travel to take off between both cities.

Singapore Airlines (SIA) and Cathay Pacific Airways will operate the travel bubble flights, which will start with one flight a day in each direction, each capped at 200 passengers. Flights will be increased to twice a day from June 10.

Cathay Pacific Airways said on Tuesday (April 27) that its website saw more than a 10-fold increase in traffic on Monday (April 26).

“Seats on our air travel bubble flights are selling fast, while some of the flights are sold out,” said its spokesman.

A Singapore Airlines (SIA) spokesman said the airline has also seen a strong demand for their air travel bubble flights but declined to reveal figures due to commercial sensitivity.
