“With Singapore reopening its international borders to fully vaccinated travellers from 1 April 2022 and further relaxation of COVID-19 related regulations, we are cautiously optimistic of the recovery trajectory,” company secretary Ong Jinq Her said.
“While we are encouraged by the gradual increase in footfall to our integrated resort, Resorts World Sentosa, we anticipate that the pace of recovery in leisure travel will be moderated by limited flight schedules, high airfares, and ongoing travel restrictions on visitors from certain countries.
“We continue to harness opportunities to refresh and build new visitor offerings to emerge stronger from the pandemic and capture any upswing in demand.”
