US eases China Covid flight curbs further

American officials have announced that flights between the US and China will see an increase to 70 per week commencing on November 9. This development reflects a gradual easing of restrictions on services that were imposed during the pandemic in the world’s two largest economies. The number of weekly flights will now rise from 48 to 70, with round-trips increasing from 24 to 35, according to a filing by the US Department of Transportation on Friday.
