Leaving Sydney airport we had to take a RAT within 24 hours of arriving in Hawaii. This equated to trying to get a doctors appointment late on Sunday afternoon (before a public holiday) or on the day of the public holiday. So we opted to do our test immediately before our flight, which retrospectively was…

Do’s and Don’t for Travelling with Your Significant Other.
