CV and mad panic behaviour

In principle GTC, yes ... in practice, radically different.  ALL carriers operating into Australia MUST be members of IATA (Intl air transport association) but that don't have the authority to alter the T&Cs for all passenger uplift across all carriers.  Only the federal govt can enforce that, a state government cannot.

That's why Qantas has started the push.  The complexity of bringing that into being universally, well, I could write a book about that.  Minefields

[member=827]capcom[/member]‍ -  I read the other day governments were thinking about forcing airlines to quarantine international staff from domestic staff, it seems unworkable. Especially if destinations bring in a vaccination / quarantine requirement for incoming airline staff as well as passenger arrivals.

How do you quarantine staff before departure, then require them to quarantine again on return, and still remain a viable organisation? You'd need to have staff on the job for weeks on end, on top of having them endure quarantine before and after a block of work, just to get a reasonable staff duty cycle!
