So they hold you after deplaning in STT to check that everyone has test paperwork? I will certainly get tested beforehand but this 48 hr window seems like it is asking for problems. Especially with airline delays, now going into the holiday and winter weather! What happens if you are delayed at the airport due to a snowstorm or something and your test expires? Bring extra Emed tests and test in the airport? UGH!
Read the article posted above. It calls out that in the event of a delay and your test is over 48 hours old, they will retest you at your port of entry to the BVI ($50).
