Like literally zero difference. People are complaining about flights coming in from "infected places" like we aren't one of the infected places! The passengers are statistically less likely to have the virus than your next door neighbour.
People have taken guidance from months ago when we had few cases and were still trying to track n trace and are applying it to a country that is in the middle of an active pandemic.
Tl;Dr... For now, it doesn't matter if a few plane passengers are carrying Covid.

A few dozen on a plane could infect the whole plane, so that is full planes arriving unaware they are infected. I still say that regardless of the current infection rate for their own safety and that of the vulnerable they might come into contact with isolation for 7 days is beneficial.
