PAL’s medical service partner Detoxicare Molecular Diagnostics Laboratory will conduct the mandatory RT PCR COVID19 tests for non-OFWs, while the Philippine Coast Guard will administer the tests for all arriving OFWs. This is industry and government working in unison with a common goal: to ensure ease and convenience of passengers as they go through testing protocols on arrival.” Philippine Airlines stated: “The flag carrier set up this new One-Stop-Shop, dedicated to non-OFW travelers, to complement the government’s current One-Stop-Shop for OFWs.
