• Is it weird that the country is in "lock-down" but the airports seem to be in business as usual? Or is it too late for anything to happen at the borders now as it's already everywhere?

    I flew into Gatwick on Tuesday (having been traveling for ~40 hours surrounded by coughing/sniffly people); got to Gatwick & there was a small table in the corner of the immigration hall with some sanitiser on it & a poster of "Don't spread it" but nothing else. No questions asked about prior trips (Italy, China etc...), no screening, no forms or information handed out. This is a stark contrast to Auckland, Bali & Dubai which all had lots of announcements, social distancing markers, temperature scanners etc...

  • Again, not about the number of planes. Not sure why that's so difficult to understand?
    Maybe duty free still being open for business during lock down is fine, I suppose cheap booze is essential now off-licenses are allowed to stay open!
