The Travel Industry Council said on Sunday that flights between Hong Kong and Singapore have been fully booked for the first two weeks following the scheduled launch of a travel bubble between the two places on May 26.
The council’s chairman, Jason Wong, said the tickets were mostly snapped up by business travellers and people visiting their relatives.
He hoped more flights could be operated in summer between the two places for holidaymakers.
Asked if he's worried the travel bubble might be halted again - given the emergence of Covid variants in Hong Kong, he said he thought it would depend on the vaccinated rate here.
“More and more citizens are taking the vaccine," he said.
He added that he hoped to see this trend continuing.
Wong said travel agencies are also busy preparing for local tours now that the government is allowing tours of up to 30 participants to resume.
