yep.
and as expected and so obviously, we now have leaks of the Japanese government cancelling the Olympic Games.
anyone seriously saying that Australians or anyone will be flying to the UK, mainland Europe, the USA etc in July is utterly deluded.
Singapore is a maybe perhaps. As potentially are places like NZ or Vanuatu, Fiji etc. However I would think that seeing as no official announcement had been made by these governments or is likely in the next month or so, advertising tickets to such places now again is very very questionable indeed.
And there is the fact that we haven’t started our vaccination program yet and won’t until February or March and certainly will not have a significant percentage of the population vaccinated by July. So given Qantas itself and presumably the government of the country you are visiting will require proof of vaccination, how can anyone be certain they will have been vaccinated by then. The elderly, front line workers and other vulnerable groups will be first up.
I hope serious legal action is taken against both Qantas and its CEO.
