(CNN) — Australia's national carrier Qantas will require future international travelers to prove they have been vaccinated against Covid-19 before flying. But certainly, for international visitors coming out and people leaving the country, we think that's a necessity," the Qantas chief said. Testing is the first key to enable international travel without quarantine measures," said Alexandre de Juniac, IATA's director general and CEO in a statement. However, the airline's international fleet remains grounded. In August, Qantas said it's "unlikely" to resume international flights before July 2021, as it suffers heavy losses due to the pandemic.
