Bushfires continue to rage in New South Wales, affecting popular tourist areas and travel.
Qantas has issued a statement to say that the fires have disrupted the travel arrangements for a number of Qantas pax travelling to and from Sydney and Newcastle. There are a variety of options for affected pax, including rebooking or rerouting, free of charge. Flight statuses for Qantas can be checked here.
At Sydney Airport there may be some domestic flight delays. Flights can be checked here.
Newcastle Airport, a regional hub about 175km north of Sydney, has reopened after a nearby bushfire forced its closure and evacuation. 
Destination NSW has recommended that visitors check the latest bushfire information before travelling in the area as there may be road closures or restricted access to some areas. Info can be found at here.
