Abta has agreed a new deal with Covid-19 test provider Halo, which offers saliva-based testing.

Halo is the UK-based provider for saliva-based PCR tests

UK-based biotechnology firm Halo becomes just one of five testing companies to achieve partner status with Abta and is the first to offer a “spit not swab” PCR test.

The firm already works with travel brands such as British Airways, Sofitel, Cathay Pacific and Hilton Hotels and Resorts.


Abta said the partnership with Halo would give members “clearer access to trusted Covid-19 tests and information on the need for different testing procedures ahead of foreign travel”.
