If you’ve ever flown into New Zealand, you will know there are numerous signs and warnings that bringing any organic produce into the country is illegal and will be met with fines.
If you declare it, they’ll just take it off you and let you go. Don’t declare it, you get a fine.
It’s not hard. Unsure? Declare it.
[edit] But also, Quantas are in the wrong here. They’re an Australian airline, and Australia has similar biosecurity laws. The fact they served their customers fruit, and didn’t inform them is poor form.
Exactly. These folks are just stupid or illiterate. I actually enjoy watching folks get upset about their own stupidity.
