In a report by NAN, China has indicated it will ease Coronavirus restrictions on foreign airlines in the coming days.
The move was necessitated after the US promised to suspend all Chinese passenger planes from flying into the US as China placed restrictions on American airlines.
A statement by the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) indicated that qualifying foreign carriers barred from operating flights to China will start operating, however, flights will be only once a week.
According to the agency, this will take effect from June 8.
”All airlines will be allowed to increase the number of international flights involving China to a maximum of two per week if no passengers on their flights test positive for COVID-19 for three consecutive weeks.
If five passengers or more on one flight test positive for the coronavirus upon arrival, the CAAC would bar the airline from services for a week.
Also, airlines would be suspended for four weeks if 10 passengers or more test positive,” the statement reads.
