Passengers must not have any travel history outside of Singapore and VTL participating countries within the last 14 days before traveling to Singapore to enjoy VTL flights.
You can visit multiple VTL countries in the same trip and still be eligible for VTL flights. For example, passengers can fly from London to Munich and then from Munich to Singapore.
