Travellers can request an early termination to end their quarantine and will be subjected to a PCR test on the fifth day of their quarantine. Travellers wanting to travel to Turkey can take advantage of the direct flights from Cape Town and Johannesburg to Istanbul after Turkish Airlines returned to South African skies in December of last year. All passengers arriving in Turkey must have completed a Passenger Locator Form here.
