JACINDA ARDEN: NEW ZEALAND & AUSTRALIA WILL IMPLEMENT TRAVEL BUBBLE

NEW Zealand will implement a travel bubble or quarantine-free travel bubble with Australia on April 18, 2021. However, travelers must bear all risks themselves when countries impose a quarantine from time to time.

According to New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern revealed that the Trans-Tasman travel bubble will open at 11:59 p.m. on April 18, 2021. The Travel Bubble will allow quarantine-free travel between New Zealand and Australia, and is believed to be the first bilateral travel bubble of its kind since the pandemic. COVID-19.

“I don’t know of any other country in the world that maintains a strategy of elimination and opens up to other countries, so that’s a great thing,” she said.

Jacinda Ardern explained that the travel bubble between New Zealand and Australia did not rule out the possibility of trapping travelers in other countries if the quarantine was reinstated. The New Zealand government, however, will not offer assistance to travelers who are trapped during the quarantine period when it is reinstated.

“The travel bubble would be suspended if a case was detected which one country believed was not easy to solve, and flights would stop completely if several cases were reported,” she affirmed.

Ardern also noted that a lockdown in one Australian state would not affect the ability of people from other states to travel between countries. [sources/photo special]
