COVID 19 symptoms: I can't tell you how long it will take you to get a negative PCR test. However, it seems that many airlines require a COVID 19 test within 72 hours of travel (may different with different countries or airlines). Some airlines allow you to purchase hometest from them and then you must mail it is w/in 72 hours of flight time.
