iscoverIf you’ve ever found yourself scrambling for a pen on the plane to fill out one of those pesky paper cards before you reach Customs, fear not – after a two-year trial and much lobbying by the tourism industry, there will soon be a digital alternative to the Incoming Passenger Card (IPC).
Rolling out over the next 12 to 18 months, the Australia Travel Declaration will make the bane of every groggy passenger’s tray table a thing of the past, streamlining the border process and bringing Australia in line with other countries in the region and around the world.

Plus, another big milestone for WSI with the arrival of its first freighter just two weeks from the official launch of commercial cargo flights.
