Queensland eyes off quarantine-free travel, 90% double dose milestone

 Queensland will likely reach the critical 90 per cent double vaccination rate this week, the trigger point to open up international travel to and from the Sunshine State.




Flight Centre CEO Graham ‘Skroo’ Turner said it was great news.

“I think it’s great for Queenslanders to be able to travel overseas, there are still some questions of the availability of flights out of here because the airlines become quite wary of governments not necessarily delivering or changing their minds, but I think that has changed now,” he told Scott Emerson.

He said it was a “mixed bag” in terms of the international carriers coming into Brisbane.

“We think the fares, as soon as capacity comes back, will be pretty reasonable, similar to pre-COVID levels.”
