The premier of Western Australia Mark McGowan has announced that the state's hard border will open from March 3, 2022. In late January the government backflipped on a February 5 opening date causing disruption to travelers. The state has had one of the world's lowest COVID infection rates. It also now has the highest vaccination rate with the double dose rate at above 98 percent and first dose at 99.5 percent and the third dose rate at above 50 percent. By March 5, the government says the third dose rate will be above 70 percent - which will also be the highest in the world.
About AirlineRatings.com Airlineratings.com was developed to provide everyone in the world a one-stop-shop for everything related to airlines, formed by a team of aviation editors, who have forensically researched nearly every airline in the world. Our rating system is rated from one to seven stars on safety – with seven being the highest ranking. Within each airline you will find the country of origin, airline code, booking URL and seat map information. The rating system takes into account a number of different factors related to audits from aviation’s governing bodies, lead associations as well as the airlines own safety data. Every airline has a safety rating breakdown so you can see exactly how they rate. Over 230 of the airlines on the site that carry 99 per cent of the world’s passengers have a product rating. Given that low cost, regional and full service carriers are so different we have constructed a different rating system for each which can be found within each airline.
