Our MSM has been saying that Air NZ and the airports want at least two, preferably three weeks notice of a free-for-all travel bubble with Australia. Probably Air NZ want to sort out some minor unimportant details like rostering crews & running them through simulator checks, pulling aircraft out of semi-mothballs status and so on. In the case of the airports, pulling down hoardings, cleaning and re-stocking the shops - which may not be easy the way the supply chains are at the moment - and giving the shop operators time to re-hire or replace staff they laid off months ago.
The Leader of the Opposition is, of course saying we should reopen this afternoon, or at latest tomorrow
