Today, April 19th is the official start of the Australia-New Zealand tourism bubble，OR trans-Tasman travel bubble. Although previous iterations of the epidemic have delayed this plan so long, it has now moved beyond a promise to a real thing. This would undoubtedly be a good thing, both for tourists and for citizens who need to travel between the two countries. But with all sorts of problems with the rollout of the vaccines, people have to look at this long-lost opportunity.

Dr. David Beirman is a senior lecturer in the Management Discipline Group of the University of Technology- Sydney specializing in tourism. He joined us and talked about it.
