Varun Mehndiratta Posted December 28, 2021 Report Share Posted December 28, 2021 Getting a bit messy....checking with airlines if it's 48hr for test to be done or 72hrs (website says 72hrs and one of the online document says 48hrs, believe it's dynamic these days )....with it being eve and weekend ahead won't take risk if 48hrs... Till I get confirmation from flight will put my plans to join drive on hold.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried SEHA in City Walk to save 100 AED, but the waitnig time there sims like much more than an hour. Did it in Al Zahra - as alawas no waiting time Understand now SEHA centers is only on appointment basis, are they still accepting walk in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Srikumar Posted December 28, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 28, 2021 In the past, they would let you in at any time as long as you had an appointment for that particular day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they are but then appointments take priority. Have colleagues who had to wait 2+ hours and others who got lucky. For SEHA, advisable that you take an appointment 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SEHA Accepts walk in customers but you have to take an appointment on the app at any day slot and make the payment online. Once you are in SEHA center you can show that you have made the payment and they will accept you. SEHA is not accepting cash payments anymore. I would have participated for this drive if my PCR test would have turned GREEN instead of RED. I had been to Khawaneej center on Christmas day with my kids for a screening as they had to return back to Abu Dhabi and did a test just for the heck of it and now am stranded at home. It seems you can be Covid +ve even if you are seemingly 100% healthy. Lots of asymptomatic cases. By the way Khawaneej center was full - never seen this anytime I went there to take a PCR test and took me almost 2 hours to get the screening done. SEHA test results are taking around 24 hours now. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
