Air New Zealand’s first quarantine-free flight from Auckland to Brisbane will take off tomorrow- Thursday, January 7, 2021.

Passengers on board the 7.40am flight will not need to quarantine on arrival in Brisbane so long as they fill out an Australia Travel Declaration form saying that they have been in New Zealand for 14 days.

Air New Zealand already operates similar flights to Sydney and Melbourne.

There are now five flights a week between Auckland and Brisbane. Three will be quarantine-free, with the other two for passengers heading to quarantine.

Air New Zealand Chief Customer and Sales Officer Leanne Geraghty said that people beginning their journey in New Zealand cannot book quarantine flights.

“Our teams have been working closely with authorities in Australia to ensure that all agencies are satisfied that processes are in place to confidently accept quarantine-free flights. We thank our customers for their patience while we worked with various agencies in Australia to ensure that we can keep everyone safe,” she said.

Restrictions in other States

Any passengers who plan to travel beyond Queensland to another State in Australia must check State and Territory travel restrictions and ensure that they have the appropriate exemptions and approvals to travel.

More information on the Safe Travel Zone can be found here.

People returning to New Zealand from Queensland will still need to quarantine for 14 days upon their arrival in this country.
