Can you still travel from India to Australia? Two Australian cricketers prove it's possible, and not all that complicated

Qatar airways has confirmed to the ABC that people can still travel from India to Australia via Doha

It is understood they have received no special permissions to return, travelling under the existing rules.Prime Minister announced Australia would try and effectively cease travel from India to AustraliaDirect commercial and repatriation flights from India to Australia have been suspended until mid-May in an effort to protect the hotel quarantine system.

"We are advised that indirect flights through Doha, Dubai, Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, we are aware flights to and from these transit points and India have been paused by the respective governments," he said. "That will obviously have impacts, in a positive way, in terms of restricting the inflow and in fact in most cases eliminating it."Qatar Airways has confirmed to the ABC that it remains possible to travel from India to Australia, transiting through Doha.

It is okay. Traveling via Doha still creates a bottleneck. I thought the idea was to restrict excess travellers to make quarantine manageable, not to wholesale stop every entry.

Well if that is the case stop that loophole as well. Frankly ALL international travel in needs to be put on hold until vaccinations have reached desired level. Stopping and starting the economy when a breach occurs does no one any good. It is rank short termism.

So clever, not.

But cricketers aren't 'people'.

Of course it’s possible. I am surprised this govt does not understand it. They should stop all flights from every country. We’ve worked hard going through lockdowns, losing jobs...all to protect the nation. Do not put this country at risk now. Stop all flights.

I’m not surprised. Also what about via Singapore? I know quite a few people who’ve managed to fly into Australia during covid. All just had to do 2 weeks hotel quarantine. One has to do additional 2 weeks home quarantine as she flew from Sydney to Perth. Seems easy for some. $?

Everything can be bought in India. One repatriation flight turned away 20 out of 200 pax for having positive covid tests. Upon arrival in Oz further 56 were identified as having covid despite presenting with clear test results in india. Apparently they were infected on the plane.
