Effective for flights departing from 12:01 am 19 July 2022 (AEST), customers are no longer required to provide proof of vaccination to travel on a Qantas aircraft.
Some countries require passengers to be fully vaccinated before travel. Check the government requirements for all countries that you're travelling to or transiting through to ensure you meet their vaccination requirements.
Whether your customers are travelling from, to or within Australia, ensure you check the latest government travel requirements, which may include mandatory health declarations, vaccinations, use of face masks, entry permits, pre-approval and quarantine (possibly at your customer’s own expense), or they could be denied entry.
