in both jurisdictions, Dr Young said.After Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk flagged the decision earlier in the month, many in the tourism, airline and business sectors were hoping to see a full return of travel between the states.
"With Christmas fast approaching, there are many families and travellers wanting to confirm their holiday plans, and many businesses wanting to plan for the month ahead."Mr Gschwind said the fact that "the main prize, namely Sydney, is out of reach" would impact not only those on the NSW side of the border who had booked trips, but Queensland businesses that would see those bookings cancelled.
Dr Young pointed to four cases with unknown links recorded in NSW on Thursday – along with earlier information – as a key element in her decision to continue to lock out the 32 Sydney local government areas that had seen cases in the past 28 days.

By their own admission state chief health officers have said they don’t know enough regarding this virus and have just used blunt instruments, “oh just shut the border” it’s not insightful management it’s lazy management.
Stuff them. Greedy assholes.
I didn’t realise that tourism and business leaders know better than the medical profession.
More Murdock gutter press SMH . Queenslanders are being the tourists in Queensland. How about Gladys promote NSW instead of whinging about QLD? Here there are no vacancy signs up everywhere and cafes are packed. So boo to you SMH.
Australia will build a wall around NSW. To protect ourselves. This is not COVID related 😂
NSW can’t say crap our boarders are still close to Victoria as we begged the gov to do
She protects the elderly and the sick who really should induce severe protections against this virus, by making the rest of us pay for it. This commonality is pure communism. Get rid of her.
More anti-Labor propaganda coming from Fairfax / Channel 9 / Peter Costello ThisIsNotJournalism
You'd think these imaginary 'leaders' would've learned by now their financial self interests are utterly irrelevant, yet here we are again🥱
