Flights were suspended on 25 May, initially for 72 hours, and then extended.
Though travel from Victoria is technically still paused, a limited number of commercial green flights were offered, subject to conditions.
Flights were restricted to New Zealand citizens and residents, Australians who live in New Zealand, and those on temporary visas. Australians resident in that country were not able to travel to New Zealand on the flights.
Passengers had to show a negative Covid-19 test result taken within 72 hours of boarding.
The first flight arrived just after 6pm on Wednesday. Very excited to be on the correct side of the ditch, one passenger, Anne, said. On the night before we were due to leave, we got a bonus 14 days over there.
