Travel Weekly can happily confirm this announcement is not just some twisted April Fool’s Day prank by Premier Palaszczuk.

Staff at Parliament House’s café have already memorised Darren Rudd’s coffee order, as the AFTA boss spends another week down in Canberra.

Things are starting to look up for Berejiklian, even if she did find out about Palaszczuk’s big news at the same time everyone else did.

Queenslanders would be well advised to take cover, as we imagine waves of Victorians and NSW residents will be descending on the Sunshine State in the coming weeks.

Palaszczuk has extended a pre-emptive welcome to Sydneysiders who want to spend their summer in Queensland, while hinting an announcement about Victoria may come tomorrow.

Annastacia Palaszczuk has given her Cabinet a bit of a reshuffle. Or, as Carson Kressley would say, a tzsuj.

Sydneysiders were seen kicking cans down the street this morning while shaking their fists in Queensland’s general direction following the announcement.

Confused about when the darn border between Queensland and NSW is going to open? Get a bit more clarity with this.

The alarm bells are ringing in NSW, with the state at risk of missing its 1 November deadline for reopening with Queensland.

Gladys has upped the strictness scale for returning NSW travellers, who will have to complete hotel quarantine at their own expense from Friday.

Domestic travel in Australia has been dealt a blow, with the Sunshine State set to close its border to Sydneysiders.

While this decision is disappointing for the travel industry, it had to happen. Let’s hope this is the last time the border closes between these two states.
