The couple's plane to Sydney was delayed on Thursday after the pair endured two lots of fortnight-long coronavirus quarantines.
The Whithams were scheduled to get back to Tamworth on Thursday but they are now set to touch down on Friday.
They will likely spend Thursday night in Sydney.
The Tamworth couple got caught up in the coronavirus crisis when passengers on the Diamond Princess were diagnosed with the illness.
The Whithams were quarantined on the cruise ship for two weeks off the coast of Japan before they were sent to an old workers' site in Darwin.
They have spent the last two weeks at the Northern Territory site with another 200 Australians who were also on board the cruise ship the Diamond Princess.
