The budget airline's COVID-19 mitigation plan is among the strictest in the industry.
Australia's Qantas (QAN) last month said it will require international flight passengers to be fully vaccinated while earlier this week Air New Zealand (AIR) also announced the same requirement for passengers on international flights.
