"Restarting flights to New Zealand is about more than starting to rebuild our worldwide network, it's about reconnecting families and friends and getting more of our people back flying again", Mr David said.
Quarantine-free travel for New Zealanders travelling to Australia had been in place since late past year, but for the competition to proceed in its original six-week format or without the need for a single hub, it had to be the same scenario for Australians travelling to New Zealand.
"And if we saw multiple cases of unknown origin, we would likely suspend flights for a set period of time", Ardern said.
