Holiday parks and campgrounds are urging Kiwis to get fully vaccinated to protect their summer holidays.
National industry association, Holiday Parks New Zealand is telling guests with summer bookings that vaccination is the easiest way to avoid problems, as questions over vaccine certificates, mandates and travel restrictions still loom large.
"They still have time to get vaccinated to ensure they can fully enjoy their summer
Break," says CEO Fergus Brown.
"Even though the government has provided help with the new risk assessment forms and vaccine certificates, time is creeping by. We're only seven weeks away from Christmas," he said.
More than 611,000 New Zealanders stayed in a holiday park last January, roughly 12 per cent of the population, and they are likely to be a popular choice again for the coming holidays.
