The Australian Federation of Travel Agents (AFTA) today said the decision to close the Victoria – New South Wales border was disappointing but necessary.

AFTA, the peak industry body which represents 3000 travel agents and their 40,000 employees, has been working constructively with Government as well as other industry associations, and key stakeholders in the tourism sector.

Quotes attributable to Darren Rudd, AFTA CEO:

“AFTA will continue to work collaboratively with Government at a Federal, State and Territory level to constructively navigate these incredibly confronting times.”

“We acknowledge that the primary focus of Government and Health Authorities is protecting lives and containing the spread, whilst also re-booting the economy in a sensible way.”
