Those rapid tests at hospitals won’t work for international travel. Can’t just do a nose swab. Needs to be sent to a lab and you have to have a certificate that says you took a RT-PCR test to board your flight.

Best I’ve seen is like 8-24hrs but usually have to pay

How positive are you about this because it doesn't sound right? I'm not sure the people at the airport are capable of telling the difference?

PCR tests usually take 48-96 hours to get back right? Doesn't seem reasonable for someone to plan this with that short of a window to not make the timeline.
