From Monday, Singapore will resume commercial flights with India through its vaccinated travel lane (VTL) facility with six designated flights daily from Chennai, Delhi and Mumbai.
The resumption comes a week after Singapore’s civil aviation authority (CAAS) announced on November 21 that it reached an agreement with India’s aviation ministry to resume flights between the two countries.
However, the city-state has been kept under the category of ‘at risk’ countries by India in the wake of the spread of a new variant of coronavirus, called Omicron. This means that travellers coming to India from Singapore will be subjected to tighter scrutiny.
