Wizz Air partners with COVID-19 testing firm for cheaper tests

Wizz Air announced a COVID-19 testing partnership to allow its British passengers to take cheaper tests, as a negative coronavirus certificate starts to re-open travel markets. Wizz Air, whose primary market is in eastern Europe but increasingly serves western Europe, said on Tuesday that its passengers could pay $114 for a test before or after flying. A negative test is a pre-requisite for some travel abroad and a rule change in England announced earlier on Tuesday means that a negative test after five days of quarantine means people do not need to spend 14 days in isolation. That price is offered through a deal between the airline and partner, Confirm Testing, and is cheaper than the cost without the Wizz discount. <br/>
