I wasn't passing any judgement on Australia's rights to have and enforce quarantine.

​​​I'm just trying to highlight that even if you have a passport permitting travel and a client willing to pay for both flights and quarantine, it is no means like normal travel and that quarantine is far removed from what most travellers here would recognise as a hotel stay.

You'll be shut in a basic Novatel(esque) room (or quarantine centre in the Northern Territory) with very basic meals provided and little or no ability to excercise or get fresh air.

Bit as I also said, each to their own.
