Travellers at Melbourne Airport on Wednesday soldiered on despite warnings from Premier Gladys Berejiklian about travel between Victoria and NSW.

A warning from the NSW Premier managed to spook, but not deter, a hardy army of interstate travellers at Melbourne Airport on Wednesday, who rejected her advice to reconsider travelling to Melbourne.

Hannah Richardson, 33, who was returning to Melbourne after more than a week visiting her parents and brother in Croydon, in Sydney’s inner west, said NSW Premier Gladys Berejiklian was "being a bit over-cautious"."I think it was a little bit much," she said. "I mean, there's been a spike [in Victorian coronavirus cases], but it's not outrageous, right?Hannah said she "didn’t even think" about cancelling her flight on Wednesday.

Dante Starr, 20, of Coffs Harbour, NSW, and his partner Taron Sharpe, 18, from near Gosford, NSW, were starting a two-week visit to Melbourne, their first, because they needed a break. "But you should be cautious. We're in the middle of a pandemic. If you’re going anywhere you have to make sure that it's something you need to be doing."Taron said: "At the same time, you can't stop completely for goodness knows how long, because this could last another year, easily."

Only border closure works

Selfish.

What happens to the medical expert advice of assuming everyone around you is infected Idiots !!!!

What total criminal behavior in treating all travelers as criminals . Iceland tests all arrivals and only quarantines people who are deemed contagious ( PCR positive and antibody negative ) . They had 7000 arrivals and only 2 met that criteria this week . Advanced nation .

Idiots

How about only one way entry once youre in victoria youre doomed there for all eternity And dont let anyone leave ever again .

Spread it everywhere why dont you ! Better still stay in victoria and dont come out And for god’s sake why visit victoria when there are so many infinitely other better places like South Australia 😀

Looking for a good night in Victoria? Stay home and have a wank.

Ask them quarantine 14 days after arrival.

Much like Pete Evans' light machine, the glorious light that radiates from enlightened city of Melbourne will protect all travellers.
