SEOUL - South Korea has eased airport restrictions and removed mandatory quarantine for unvaccinated travellers, as part of efforts to reopen borders, now that its domestic Covid-19 situation has stab

The Central Disaster Management Headquarters said last week that the decision was made after considering how the pandemic has stabilised within the country and overseas and how demand for air travel has increased. The increase in flights is aimed at bringing ticket prices down and boosting demand ahead of South Korea's travel peak in the summer months of July and August.

Travellers are required to take a polymerase chain reaction test within two days of departure, or an antigen rapid test at a hospital or clinic within a day of departure.
