Travellers will no longer need to isolate on arrival in New Zealand. Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern said the requirement ends on Wednesday and currently applies only to returning Kiwis, as foreign tourists are still banned.
Travellers are still required to test negative before and after arriving. “I know this will be welcome news to people eager to travel home to see loved ones as soon as possible,” Ardern said.
It was mostly welcomed by the tourism industry, but the uncertainty over opening borders for foreign travellers is hampering recovery plans.
