Can you not do all that now over there? I read from many commentators that it is all normal everywhere else but here?

Well, you know - they do have their downsides as well. My sister caught Covid on the train from Stockholm to Gothenburg (a year ago ... prior to vaccinations).
But yes, would be nice to not just be able to travel again (we can, if we want), but also being able to return in a predictable timeframe back to NZ :):
"normal everywhere else but here"
ok ... is it normal anywhere....the new normal then...No not going till the stop over zones are deemed safer to protect alveoli. As one gets older protecting VO2 Max becomes harder and harder.
You can ... and it is. It is just difficult for any Kiwis who want to get back as well, given that our government prefers to keep their electorate locked up. While we are allowed to leave, it is impossible to plan the return journey (unless you are a British DJ or one of the Wiggles - we always have space for them in MIQ.
But back to AIR ... I wonder how this policy does impact on them?
Country is in red for 2 weeks right? borders closed for travel bubble till when?
does anyone know whats going on?
Have to assume AIR has no idea when it can get some overseas travel bubbles operating again.
It appears situation is just a state of confusion.
SNFU.... its a SNFU....
2 weeks - nope!
2 weeks was mentioned for the 1st phase when we hit 1k cases/day.
At that point some of the settings change but we are still in RED.
Things like tracing change, how long to isolate, use of RATs begins (useless now really with low case numbers).
Travel - still end of Feb being talked about for what would have happened on 17th Jan (open to Aus with home isolation) and maybe what was going to happen with the rest of the world (open to Kiwis with home isolation).
More to come on this in a week or 2.
"RATs"
yes we have some Rat traps.... but a hedge hog seems to over turn them..
Are the Rats in warehouses somewhere?
Arrh we go Deeper in to the RED then...
Glad someone is still listening to the state of the nation.. arrrh colony... islands full of summer sun seekers...:t_up:
anyone counting..
"2 weeks was mentioned for the 1st phase when we hit 1k cases/day."
what is the number now or is everyone out on the sun deck getting sozzled for the weekend...
what phase is the colony in now?
The Longer plan was two months for the Lock Down (not called a Lock Down, but something else)
for convenience sake, so Robertson & mates didn't think they had to stump up any dough ..
Right ? ;)
Can't be seen to be stroking that nasty beasty - 'Inflation' can they .. like any old lame excuse will do ;)
Up 5% in the last week.... Maybe this generous government is going to offer to pay above the market sp for any future shares issued? (lol)
In the meantime, the brain drain continues....:eek2:
Gosh is this still trading ....
SP taking another move upwards on the back on the MIQ news.
It will be back in profit in no time and flying high. Now all it needs is the Winner seal of approval with some really good EPS numbers.
Nothing to worry about. After all record payout to farmers and they will all want to fly out for that once or twice in a life time european trip back to see the relatives...
Dutch diary farmer sold a couple out in the waikato 2 years ago and bought a little house in a french village...
Goodness knows where that lovely man and his wife are now.
Anyway lots of kiwi birds taking to the air shortly all over the place!!!!
Winner EPS rating coming soon...
Dont know if south island Moose fly anywhere.
No cap raise needed......:t_up:
No plans to fly anywhere now until 2023.. lets see what horrible variant will emerge later this year.
AIR will be able to spin a bit of a yarn with their half year result about how they're planning to "revive and thrive" with the pending capital raise. I will have a liberal quantity of Tui's on hand especially for the occasion as I read through this wonderful case study in creative marketing which I am sure will be the subject matter of investment analysis university papers for decades to come.
Fortunately for AIR and the Govt they have a whole new generation of investors to have no knowledge of the 25 cent capital raise after 9/11 so they will think 80 cents is a screaming bargain and jump in boots and all thinking its a safe Government controlled airline with a fantastic reputation, (probably few if any would have even heard of Justice Mahon or even less would recall what he famously said).
Forbar will be infamously instrumental in orchestrating this process and once again "helping" their clients just as they did with Feltex, Credit Sails and other notable "successes"
just got brought back to earth... like a balloon that just got burst...
Was going to trade the rallies ....
Then Mr B delivered a sucker punch and i reached for a Hot Milo and went back to whatching ART's channel...
Sun just came up and its a whole new weekend.
