Video / SuppliedJetstar's first flight arriving in Auckland as part of the transtasman travel bubble has been delayed after hold-ups by passengers filling in health forms. As the first people arrived at Sydney International Airport to take advantage of the transtasman bubble, they were confronted with desolate scenes, with almost every store still closed, including McDonald's. Australia's Federal Health Minister, Greg Hunt, said the travel bubble is the "first step" in the process to reopen international borders. "The accumulation of the opening of the transtasman bubble and the start of the Kiwi school holidays has created a real sense of momentum and energy," Foran said.
