A Fox Glacier helicopter pilot flew a couple of tourists straight to police after he realised they were taking a scenic flight with him instead of following the mandatory self-isolation rule the Government has in place.
A pair from Hong Kong took the scenic flight to the glacier despite the Government's mandatory 14-day self-isolation rule for anyone recently arrived in the country.
The pilot, Rob Jewell, realised his flight full of tourists was compromised by the rule-breaking couple after the couple told him they had arrived in New Zealand on Monday.
