Finnair to Offer COVID19 Rapid Antigen Tests
for 65 Euros
|
From 4 August, a rapid antigen test that costs 65
euros (approximately GBP55 / US$77) will be available at Finnair’s headquarters in Vantaa near
Helsinki airport at Tietotie 9.
The test can be booked
online with
a Finnish personal identity code, or a date of birth.
The test result and certificate are in English and
are delivered electronically within two hours. The results are
also available in My Kanta in Finland.
“Pre-testing is a prerequisite for safe travel in
many countries. Therefore it must be affordable and reasonably
priced for anyone who wants to travel,” said Kaarlo Karvonen,
Finnair's Head of Security. “The rapid antigen test is a good
option for tourists arriving in Finland who need a negative corona
test certificate for their return journey. A growing number of
countries are accepting rapid antigen testing as a travel
document. Our aim is to make this available also in other
locations in Finland.”
The rapid antigen test is valid in most EU and
Schengen countries, however some countries only accept PCR test
results which Finnair does not yet offer.
