I wonder what complaining we will hear about the "quality" of the Novohell? perhaps the common facilities such as gym, pool and bars are inferior (noting that the crew should not see anything other than reception, lift, corridor and room, and reverse when departing).
Well, that provided this morning's dose of levity for me ( given Swan's history of'getting it wrong' during the pandemic).
Rerouting yourself back via Canberra? (as big a headache as it maybe!).
Nope, cancelling whole trip.
I think there's a conclusion being drawn that may not be valid here. Someone in HQ was tested as required, found positive and that test was sequenced.
Airfreight tech crew numbers are probably capped at 3-4 per flight. Different story to a pax flight which is north of 20 per flight on a widebody, even with few passengers as you need to crew all doors. You also didnt have to deal with the passengers on those flights.
I Never said to stop airfreight but I can assure you that not all incoming flights into Sydney are crewed as if they are passenger flights even using passenger configured aircraft. There are 3 x CI aircraft departing most nights of the week for example.
It's an interpretation thing - hard by Queensland standards means a police checkpoint rather than a trust system. Have your papers ready, and if you're from metro Sydney expect to be turned around or sent to prop up the SE Queensland hotel industry for 14 days.
