@Hooroo I don't imagine it is at all a doddle or pleasant. But necessary.
Also for anyone currently quarantined something they have made a conscious choice to do.
I dunno. Surely ppl coming into NZ now are not doing it by choice. More likely their only option.

Feels like we should be looking into improved options to make the 14 day quarantine as pleasant as possible. I know there is a balance with cost/scale and all that jazz. But surely we'd entice more folks here if we could find a way for people to get exercise or access to a nearby park or facility?
If this is going to be a long term endeavor then we need to improve this imo. Maybe having people located in central city isn't the best idea? Book out the Airport hotel in Akld - it's massive and has a heap of outside green space. Or something along those lines.
Hooroo, got a spare paddock or two? Lockdown B&B!!

Somewhere like this is just made for it
Really not sure why we can't find other places like that - motels outside Auckland, etc. Bit of transport, 14 days relaxing with good food delivered, charge guests $5k or summat, and bob's your uncle.
The down side is locked doors with cameras around the place and security to make sure people aren't escaping, but that's the price of coming over the border. I think it's a no-brainer at the right price, and starts to bring in people again in a meaningful way. Set the requirements and get out of the way of people innovating to solve

Turn off the parental lock on the porn channels?

They have been using the Airport Novotel for quarantine.

And Grand Mercure in Auckland as I think that was where one ferner was quarantined

@Paekakboyz I guess part of the problem is in a large complex, you have people who are at say day 10 of quarantine, then new arrivals, they still need to be kept seperate...

Most ferners should be locked up indefinitely.
You would like that wouldn’t you.

Oh oh someone is in trouble, again just pointing out we are nearly all just middle age old men here.. for the record.

If visitors to NZ are complaining about the conditions of quarantine they wouldn't want to be in other countries. I have been given 2 examples from friends who had relatives depart NZ in the last few weeks.
Example 1:
In-laws returned to China in L2 and had to be quarantined in a hotel in Shanghai at their expense. Originally they were told it was to be for 2 weeks and then further self-isolation in their home city. Luckily for them they only had to be quarantined for 7 days before they were able to return home.Example 2:
A couple left NZ under L1 for the UAE and are having to be quarantined in a hotel for 14 days in Dubai. They aren't allowed to leave their room and all meals are delivered to them in disposable containers. -
