On a Recovery Mode?
The biggest move to reopen Singapore's borders will be a clear boost to international travelling, paving the way for better connectivity to travel destinations. The opening up of the transatlantic travel market is the most important development for international air travel since the beginning of the global pandemic. The launch of the VTLs will also facilitate hub connectivity to other destinations in Asia. Shares of aviation and hospitality companies such as $SIA (C6L.SG)$, $SATS (S58.SG)$, $SIA Engineering (S59.SG)$, $ST Engineering (S63.SG)$, $Genting Sing (G13.SG)$ would stand to gain the most with the opening up of Singapore's borders as the city state shifts to the endemic phase of living with Covid-19. While deliberate efforts are made to open up borders, recurring concerns like renewed infections, varying rate of vaccinations and changing regulations imply that the path towards a swift recovery in travel and hospitality sectors may not be as smooth as anticipated.

garay divinepapa : I think 50% is too far fetched
