Staycations can go ahead as planned, according to the country’s tourism board, but the experiences on offer will be unlike what customers initially signed up for.

That’s just one example of how the city-state’s tourism sector is racing to adapt to the latest restrictions imposed on the local population to curb the spread of the coronavirus.

The Singapore Tourism Board announced that there will be industrywide changes as the country returns to lockdown-like conditions for four weeks from May 16 to June 13. One hotel in the Marina Bay area is asking customers to agree to random checks to make sure there are only two guests in each room. People who breach the safety measures may be fined as much as S$10,000 or jailed for as long as six months, or both, according to the document given to staycationers at check-in.
