CANBERRA Airport has confirmed that passengers are now able to fly without restriction between Canberra, Sydney and Melbourne, as COVID-19 measures continue to ease.
CBR Head of Aviation Michael Thomson said the airport was open for business, “and we look forward to the airlines increasing the number of flights they have on offer in the coming weeks”.
Thomson confirmed that high levels of hygiene were being maintained, including sanitiser stations, social distancing, touchless entry to carparks and the terminal, and temperature screening at security checkpoints.
“Travel to Brisbane is also permitted from Canberra Airport if you obtain permission from the Queensland Government, and we hope to be able to open up travel to and from South Australia and Tasmania in the near future,” Thomson added.
There’s speculation that authorities in SA may significantly ease restrictions early next month to allow travel to Canberra in time for the school holidays.
Meanwhile the Tasmanian Government yesterday brought forward the lifting of its Stage 2 COVID-19 restrictions to this Fri, allowing hotels to reopen but continuing to mandate a 14-day self-quarantine on arrival.
