Qantas has released an emotional new ad depicting a number of people getting ready for the their first post-covid trip overseas, which had many of us in floods of tears thinking about what we have been missing since Australia's international border closed.

But it is the timing of this ad that has caused the most intrigue, with many people wondering if it means the Government is planning to reopen the border sometime soon?

The Quicky speaks to an international travel journalist and a Federal Minister to find out whether we really will be 'flying away' in the not-too-distant future.
