Borders are reopening and testing requirements are now minimal.

International travel is getting easier with even more open borders and the removal of quarantine and testing requirements. Here are 5 of the biggest changes this month.

1. The Cook Islands

What changed ?

The reopening of New Zealand to Australians on April 12 has created a passage for Australians to travel to the Cook Islands.

To get there, Australians will have to fly through Auckland on Air New Zealand. From June 2, you can also fly on Jetstar.

All visitors over 5 years and 3 months must be fully vaccinated to travel. This changes for visitors aged 16 and over from May 2, 2022.

A supervised RAT must be taken in New Zealand and within 24 hours of departure for Rarotonga. From May 2, you can take this test in Australia 48 hours before your scheduled Auckland-Rarotonga flight.

All visitors must complete a Cook Islands Contact Form within 96 hours of your scheduled flight from New Zealand.

2. Thailand

What changed ?

Effective April 1, Thailand removed pre-departure testing requirements for travellers. However, vaccinated travelers will still need to take a PCR test upon arrival and self-quarantine until you receive a negative result. A negative RAT is also required on day 5.

Unvaccinated travelers must still undergo a 5-day quarantine. Anyone flying in a sandbox area must also stay there for 5 days before they can explore the land further.

All visitors must request a Thailand pass before travelling.
