HONG KONG -- The Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR) government announced Tuesday that if there is no significant change in the epidemic situation in the local and related overseas regions, the air travel restrictions on persons who have stayed in Ireland and Britain will be lifted from this Friday.
Inbound flights from the above places can be resumed and Hong Kong residents in these places will be allowed to board and return to Hong Kong from May 7, subject to the strictest mandatory quarantine and testing arrangements upon arrival, according to the HKSAR government.
