New Zealand-Australia travel bubble - all you need to know about quarantine-free travel between NZ and Aus

Brian from New Lynn

Tomorrow night, the transtasman bubble opens - allowing Kiwis and Aussies the chance to travel between each other's countries, quarantine-free, for the first time in a year. However it's not quite back to normal when it comes to travel. Here's what you need to know.

Tomorrow night, the transtasman bubble opens - allowing Kiwis and Aussies the chance to travel between each other's countries, quarantine-free, for the first time in a year. However it's not quite back to normal when it comes to travel. Here's what you need to know.
What's the transtasman bubble?
==========================
It's two-way quarantine-free commercial flights - also known as "green" flights - between New Zealand and all states and territories of Australia, and it starts at 11.59pm tomorrow. It's also just the second travel bubble in the world, after Taiwan and Palau, between countries still committed to keeping Covid-19 out.
Sweet. Who's my ride?
===================
Air New Zealand, Qantas and Jetstar are the only airlines flying the route at this stage. Virgin Australia says it will stay away until October 31.
How much?
==========
An Air New Zealand return flight to Sydney, Brisbane or Melbourne out of Auckland, Wellington or Christchurch leaving May 1 and returning a week later will cost - including stowed luggage - between $643 and $717 per person. An Auckland to Perth return flight with the national carrier is $1179 on the same dates. Qantas flights between the three main cities in each country are similar prices: Auckland to Melbourne is $677 return and the same flights from Christchurch are $932. Low-cost carrier Jetstar charges slightly less than the major airlines: A return flight between Auckland and Sydney is $634, including stowed baggage.
Booked. Now what?
=================
Just in case it hasn't sunk in over the past 13 months, if you feel unwell, stay at home and seek advice from Healthline on 0800 611 116.
Australia-bound passengers must complete the online Australia Travel Declaration at least 72 hours before departure, where you'll be expected to provide contact details and answer questions about your health and whether you've spent time outside New Zealand in the previous 14 days.
The declaration will need to be presented at check-in. You should also bring evidence of any pre-existing conditions, such as hay fever, when you check in, to avoid being denied boarding. Also, check conditions of your travel insurance with regards to being denied boarding because of Covid-19. On your return to New Zealand you'll also have to meet conditions such as having only been in a country that's been designated as a quarantine-free place, and not tested positive - or awaiting a test result - for Covid-19, in the past 14 days. You'll also have to complete a travel declaration at the time of booking your flight, and a health declaration at check-in.
Anything else I can expect at the airport?
==================================
Health professionals may be stationed at airports to do random temperature checks and health assessments of travellers. You also won't come into contact with travellers from other countries.
To mask or not to mask?
====================
Mask.
Unless you're exempt, you'll be expected to wear a face mask while crossing the Tasman. One will be provided by the airline if you don't have one. You should also wear your mask while inside airports in New Zealand and Australia.
Do I need to get a Covid-19 test before my flight?
=======================================
If you're well and haven't potentially been exposed to Covid-19, no, you don't need a negative Covid-19 pre-departure test to travel to Australia on a quarantine-free flight. Australia has sometimes introduced requirements for testing on arrival for people from New Zealand, so keep an eye on the requirement of the state you're arriving in - covid19.govt.nz has links to state and territory travel information. I haven't received my Covid-19 vaccination yet - can I still travel to Australia?
================================================
Yes.
What if there's an outbreak of Covid-19 which sparks a lockdown or halts quarantine-free travel while I'm in Australia?
===============================================
Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern has been quite clear on this: Transtasman travel is at your own risk. It's your responsibility to manage any travel disruption related to Covid-19, and pay any associated costs. This could include, if the Covid-19 situation changes in Australia, entering managed isolation or self-isolation when you return to New Zealand. If so, you will need to pay for your stay, with applications to waive payments considered on a case-by-case basis. If you need to travel to New Zealand urgently, you can apply for an emergency allocation. If you find yourself in lockdown while away from New Zealand, follow the instructions of local authorities.

Million-dollar dumps: Publicly owned properties fall to rack and ruin

To the side of East Auckland’s Te Ara ki Uta ki Tai cycleway, nestled in overgrown greenery, is a building that wouldn’t get a second glance if it weren’t for hot pink graffiti.

To the side of East Auckland’s Te Ara ki Uta ki Tai cycleway, nestled in overgrown greenery, is a building that wouldn’t get a second glance if it weren’t for hot pink graffiti.

The house, owned by Auckland Council subsidiary Auckland Transport, was used as a site office by Waka Kotahi NZ Transport Agency staff working on the $46 million cycleway between Glen Innes to Tāmaki Drive, Auckland Transport spokesman Mark Hannan said.

But locals say the property has been all but destroyed by vandals since the cycleway was completed in 2016.

The property is one of several that have become run down and derelict under the ownership of local government.

Fines for mobile phone use while driving will increase by $70 on April 30

Brian from New Lynn

The fine for using a mobile phone while driving will increase from $80 to $150 at the end of the month as thousands of infringement notices were given out last year.

"This is our … View moreThe fine for using a mobile phone while driving will increase from $80 to $150 at the end of the month as thousands of infringement notices were given out last year. Transport Minister, Michael Wood made the announcement today, saying the new fine will now match similar offences. "This is our way of saying Kiwis need to take this seriously and put away the phone while driving," he said. “Police issued over 40,000 infringement notices for this offence last year. Driver distraction is a serious road safety issue, and inattention – including from mobile phones – can have tragic consequences." Wood said between 2015 and 2019, there were 22 road deaths in New Zealand and 73 serious injuries where drivers were distracted by a mobile phone. Also during this period, 44 per cent of fatal crashes where a mobile phone was a distracting factor had a driver aged between 15 and 19 years old. Those figures rose to 75 per cent in the 15-34 year old age group. “Safety is one of our top transport priorities. As part of our Road to Zero plan to reduce deaths and serious injuries on our roads by 40 per cent, we will begin reviewing all road safety penalties this year to make sure they are fit for purpose,” Michael Wood said. Using a mobile phone while driving will continue to attract 20 demerit points - accumulating 100 demerits points from driving offences within two years results in a loss of licence for three months.
Examples of offences that have a $150 fine associated include:
===================================================
• failing to allow impeded traffic to pass
• use of lane to right of centre line unless passing
• unauthorised use of a special vehicle lane,
• unsafe passing
• failing to move left before turning left
• driving on a lawn adjacent to the road
• driving too close
• failing to give way
• failing to stop at a stop sign
• failing to drive within lane
