- XpresSpa Group (NASDAQ:XSPA) says it will begin rapid testing for COVID-19 at both JFK International Airport and Newark Liberty International Airport tomorrow with its XpresCheck product.
- The company says rapid testing represents an expansion of XpresCheck’s COVID-19 testing options which already include the Polymerase Chain Reaction Test and Blood Antibody Test.
- Rapid testing will also be available at all future XpresCheck locations after opening.
- “We believe rapid COVID-19 testing at airports can play a major role in slowing the virus spread and decreasing the risk of new community outbreaks linked to travel as cases continue to rise throughout many states," notes CEO Doug Satzman.
- "Having a rapid test inside the airport immediately upon travel could also eliminate the need for a full 14-day quarantine in states where that applies," he adds.
- The development could be significant for JetBlue (NASDAQ:JBLU), Southwest Airlines (NYSE:LUV), American Airlines (NASDAQ:AAL), Delta Air Lines (NYSE:DAL) and United Airlines (NASDAQ:UAL) if it raises the comfort level with traveling.
