Popular Post steven100 Posted November 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 2, 2020 (edited) very risky buying any air ticket these days and especially from an airline that is supposedly going through debt restructure. far to much uncertainty and turmoil to guarantee you'll be on the flight. imo Edited November 2, 2020 by steven100 4 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can confirm that the Aussie flights have been happening for a little while now and allow only 32 passengers to fly back to Australia due to having a limit on the number of returnees to Australia from all over the world. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regular basis, that is following a schedule. They had repatriation flights, yes, but not regular. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hamleknoi Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 Just now, MadMac said: Regular basis, that is following a schedule. They had repatriation flights, yes, but not regular. It's every Sunday though. That's a schedule is it not? I mean it's only for aussies, so I assume that it'll remain that way since the govt aren't letting any locals out of the country and aren't accepting any new tourists either. So it's just a repatriation flight both ways essentially. I can also confirmed that the flights for the 8th and 15th of November are booked out.

jaiyen Posted November 2, 2020 Share Posted November 2, 2020 What about flights to and from Perth, the safest city in Australia and probably the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post aussiandrew Posted November 2, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted November 2, 2020 I can confirm scheduled flight from Sydney as I was on it last Monday morning now sitting it out in quarartine in Bangkok. At lot of hoops to jump through to get here. Plenty of Aussies on the flight. At the moment one needs plenty of time to complete all the requirements. Can't wait to taste freedom next week.

Actually they are and have in fact relaxed the criteria recently such as just stating you will be leaving for at least 3 months (prior you had to have a pressing reason). Still need to be able to get into your chosen destination country of choice obviously. https://covid19.homeaffairs.gov.au/leaving-australia#toc-2 Edited November 2, 2020 by Salerno Added link 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess the flights will be destined to fly where the need for repatriation has the highest need. Maybe Perth isn't on the radar yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
