Whitsunday tourism operators gearing up for a bumper winter season have been dealt another blow with the announcement of the latest Victorian Covid-19 lockdown.
Island resorts have been inundated with phone calls in the hours since the announcement, with Hamilton Island’s reservations line informing callers of “unusually high call volumes and long wait times” as a result of the new interstate travel restrictions.
Hamilton Island staff were unable to comment this afternoon, but Daydream Island and Long Island accommodation providers reported receiving multiple calls from Victorians seeking to either cancel or change their reservations.
Daydream Island is understood to have received 10 booking change requests within hours of the Queensland’s border closure.
