Chinese and US airlines will increase passenger flights from March 31, an official of the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) said on Thursday, a positive sign of flight recovery between the two countries.
Starting on March 31, airlines from China and the US can operate a total of 100 scheduled round trips per week, Dai Jun, an official from the CAAC, told a press conference.
It will be the biggest jump for such flights since the outbreak of the pandemic. There were three rounds of flight increases in 2023, and the most recent was from 48 to 70, starting from October.
