Good question re when you feel safe to travel again.
In your earlier post you asked about viewing from your seat shortly before landing from long flights and how you feel.
TBH I pretty much feel OK but for looking forward to a shower and not feeling jet lagged and upon viewing Sydney harbour (most times early morn arrivals) I'm feeling awesum home sweet home and how beautiful our harbour looks to arrive.
Surely many visitors must think WOW how nice is this.

Yer heading to customs frustrates me - why do people walk so bloody slow ! why are they never organsied in prep towards customs, how hard is it to slide your passport and read the prompts !
Also mentioning people who leave their on board luggage away from their seat, normally ahead of their seat, like wtf stop trying to barge through.
So glad I have a apec card and slide through the express/flight attendant section.

When it over where to ?
Well business will be first of, I will need to get back to China but I won't be rushing getting back there if I can help it !
Santiago/Lima/Industrial area of Nth Italy (yikes as well) and some asia pacific countries.
Re family, pre covid was arranging to book Euro 5wk trip lucky I didn't, London (a couple of EPL games incl) onto Madeira/Lisbon/Barca and surrounds/north Italy (incl any games that falls into the intineray apart from visiting family and touring).
Love Madeira - chilled out relaxed island, so all the fam trip above will be re scheduled for '21 fingers crossed.

Sydney International occasionally has an officer directing traffic but too often I see people with ineligible passports trying to using the smart gates. They keep interesting their passport to obtain their ticket then complain it's not working. 

It always bottlenecks as oncoming people think there's one queue. They really need some dividers for each machine and then passengers flow through to the gates. 

So once and if this is all truly over and one can travel without restrictions,  where will you be heading? I really want to go to Edinburgh and Vienna again. I'd like to take some time to get around smaller Belgian cities. Visits to Nürnberg and Frankfurt are on.

I got a short Tasmania trip in before the lockdown, and can't wait to see more of Australia. There is still a stack of Central NSW I want to see, and I also want to get back to WA at some point as I haven't been there in my post-teen life. I don't forsee me heading overseas for a while, not when there is so much on offer in my own backyard. 

I’m in the same boat PV4.
We are pretty lucky in Australia that there’s so many great places to visit.
In a way I’m more than happy to visit around Australia in a small way of boosting the economy.

Australian travelling is going to BOOM once we can get back to some form of normality.
We also will do more holiday travels round Oz, never get bored of it so much to do and see.
Get a 4x4 guys, nothing beats touring and using a dirt track or 3, beach driving is great fun and having spots all to yourselves, the scenaririty lol......
Did Sydney to Noosa during Jan hols, love being on those open roads.

Funny listenning to Alan Joyce last night - quoting fares could discounted as low as $19 ! to get people back to airports.
We shall see.
6 bidders looking into Virgin.

We need to create a little travel bubble with not just NZ but also Singapore, Hong Kong, Taiwan and South Korea.

I can get the above for those countries have handled covid pretty much as us but I'd still be pretty hesitant jumping on any flight till a vaccine is released.
No matter the amount of pre flight testing etc, seat distancing would you really trust sucking in that recycled air for x hours.

I'm working on the first trip, is packing 4x4 - with sporting gear/surf board etc and heading UP the NSW coast with the wife and daughter when were given the go ahead.

 
I agree. There will be general hesitation of air travel for some while yet. As for going up the coast, great idea. Any spots to recommend? We've gone up to and done most of the mid north coast but happy to do it again. 

It'll be interesting in the coming year or so as countries agree to open borders with each other how the USA will cope with being one of the last in the queue.

I never get sick of of north coast trips - last one in Jan right up to Noosa, that area is surreal off peak season.
Other places we head
Short run from Sydney - One Mile Beach not far from Nelson Bay.
Then Blueys Beach - Boomerang/Myall Lakes to Foster.
Cresent Head - stay there and use the Back Beachs dirt road to Point Plummer, fantastic spots.
Port Mac is ok but too many retirees same goes for Coffs Harbour but the place is improving alot.
Stayed at the Pacific Bay Resort Jan, awesum place.
Shappire Beach.
Angourie Beach near Yamba. Are the Daddo boys initials still in the cement on the  path down to Yamba Beach?   
Byron in the off season still is great.

incl Italy/Spain/London having been major tourist hot spots

The South Coast is also pretty good. I tend to head north during Autumn and south during the warmer months. Some great places in the Eurobodalla.
