mtbcAirline: Upload your COVID travel documents 48h before departure.
Airline: You need a PCR test taken within 48h of departure or an antigen test taken within 24h of departure.
Philippines: You need a PCR test taken within 48h of departure.
PCR testers: Test results may take up to 48h to arrive.
These people really need to talk to each other. I am hassled for something that cannot possibly be provided by when they want it and no provider can promise it by when I need it. Further, the airline suggests the acceptability of something that the destination does not mention.
It'll all work out, I'll get the test results more promptly, the airline will just have to suck it up, it's just annoying.
Update: Broadly as hoped, the test result came through within 30h of being taken.
