It can be confusing, so remember to look out for this!<\/span><\/p>\n In the event that you book yourself a non-VTL flight, you may be subjected to a lengthy quarantine period and a Stay-Home Notice (SHN) upon your arrival in Singapore.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n The 27 airlines operating VTL designated flights are: Air France, Air India, AirAsia, Asiana, British Airways, Fiji Airways, Finnair, Garuda Indonesia, IndiGo, Jetstar, Jetstar Asia, KLM, Korean Air, Lufthansa Malaysia Airlines, Malindo Air, Qantas, Royal Brunei Airlines, Scoot, Singapore Airlines, SriLankan Airlines, Swiss International Air Lines, Thai AirAsia, Thai Airways, Turkish Airlines, United Airlines and Vistara.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.16″ text_font=”Montserrat||||||||” text_font_size=”20px” text_line_height=”1.4em” header_font=”||||||||” header_2_font=”Raleway|700|||||||” header_2_font_size=”50px” header_2_line_height=”1.4em” header_5_font=”Montserrat||||||||” header_5_text_color=”#b3b3b3″ header_5_font_size=”14px” header_5_line_height=”0.5em” header_6_font=”Raleway|700||on|||||” header_6_font_size=”16px” header_6_letter_spacing=”5px” header_6_line_height=”1.8em” max_width=”659px” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”-14px|79px|18px||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”-12px|79px|24px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”0px|0px|7px|||” header_2_font_size_tablet=”35px” header_2_font_size_phone=”25px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n 3.

Sleeping in an airport in the same clothes for days is not as pleasant as it sounds. Neither is having to pay more for a hotel for every passing day that you wait, or incurring losses when things get delayed and cancelled.<\/span><\/p>\n Travel insurance is an important safety net against sticky situations that might turn your trip into a nightmare!<\/span><\/p>\n Being a tourist in a foreign country, you might be easily targeted for robbery and pickpocketing. In the case that you are met with unforeseen circumstances such as flight delays or testing positive for COVID-19, having travel insurance ensures that your travel and medical expenses will be reimbursed. This will prevent a great deal of financial stress.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Insurance expert Ms Isabel Ng, 22, recommends the best options you can take while travelling via the VTL: “Having travel insurance is essential as it safeguards you from risks that could potentially disrupt your long-awaited vacation.
