Gold Standard onsite private PCR testing at London Southend Airport

May 27, 2021

London Southend Airport has collaborated with Prenetics to offer onsite private COVID-19 tests. Available from today, samples are collected onsite with valid travel certificates and results provided within 24 hours from when your sample arrives at the lab.

All destinations, regardless of status under the UK traffic light system, require certificates in order to travel. Portugal is a strong favourite as the only real option under the ‘green’ category, however it is important to ensure latest Government Guidance is adhered to prior to travel.

Glyn Jones, CEO London Southend Airport, “We are pleased to offer onsite private PCR tests with Prenetics. The onsite facility ensures ease of access for passengers and with results available within 24 hours from arriving at the lab, customers can rest assured their result will be available for travel.”

London Southend Airport onsite PCR tests are now available at the reduced price of £99. This price includes onsite testing supported by qualified clinicians, same day courier to the lab in Norwich, results within 24 hours from arriving at the lab and certification.

The tests are conducted by Prenetics, a leading international digital and diagnostics company which is widely recognised for operating to the gold standard in the testing field and is approved by Government. The airport is also reviewing LAMP testing and Lateral flow testing in line with latest Government guidance.

Avi Lasarow, CEO Prenetics UK, “We are delighted to be working with London Southend Airport on this important contribution as air travel returns at this key time of year for so many families.”
