But the government has confirmed returned overseas travellers can bypass hotel quarantine if they fly into WA from another state.
The Board of Airline Representatives of Australia estimated there were about 20,000 West Australians overseas, with just 265 currently allowed to return each week through hotel quarantine. “Why cannot the passengers simply fly direct into Western Australia and then home quarantine? And why have hotel quarantine at all then?”The premier said WA had to keep its hotel quarantine system operational because once the borders reopened, there would be infected people with nowhere to isolate.
Mr McGowan insisted his controversial decision to delay reopening the borders would buy valuable time for people to get their boosters.
I'm sure NO overseas tourists will want to visit that prison State anytime soon.
