A new variant has been detected in South Africa, the Omicron strand. As such, all travellers to Hong Kong from countries with local Omicron transmission will be 3 weeks quarantine. Unfortunately, I had only booked my hotel quarantine for two weeks. I'm now on a waitlist to extend the hotel for one week. Unfortunately, this change of quarantine requirement has taken a lot of Christmas holidayers by surprise.
Category A - three weeks Rebooked for Feb 3rd - I get another month here in Sydney!
