In a bid to strengthen flight connectivity between Malaysia and Singapore, as well as boost the economic and commercial recovery of the two nations, the Penang VTL was launched on the 16 of March 2022.

🇲🇾 Travel Insurance To Penang
While it’s no longer a must for fully-vaccinated travellers from Singapore to show proof of medical travel coverage when going to Malaysia, it’s always better to be safe than sorry! To help gauge an average cost, we used a one-week travel span across six travel insurance options (from 16 to 23 March) when calculating the costs of the plans. We are also choosing the basic option of each plan so you get a gauge of the minimum amount you’ll be paying for insurance, amongst the other real costs of travelling via Vaccinated Travel Lanes.
