The limiting factor is managed isolation. You can return if there are flights from where you are currently, but you need to secure a spot in managed isolation first (2 weeks in a hotel). https://www.miq.govt.nz/travel-to-new-zealand/secure-your-pl...

I'd never voluntarily sign up for quarantine and am fortunate to have traveled between three countries in the past year that dont require them. If my home country started requiring quarantine while I was away I'd refuse to go back. What a joke. Im not impressed by their stats, it's not worth it.

It's 2 weeks in a hotel. I've been through it. It's not the end of the world.

This is why your home country is likely rampant with covid, where as nz is not.

As a kiwi who hasn’t seen family in a couple of years (my daughter has never met any family member), quarantine is a possibility.

Sure, nobody is about to have a vacation in NZ voluntarily, but that’s not what we’re discussing here, is it?
