CHINA-UK: CHINA AND UK TO RESUME DIRECT PASSENGER AIR FLIGHTS
China and the U.K. agreed to resume direct passenger flights, dramatically slashing airfares, as
Chinese regulators ratchet down Covid border controls. Services will be resumed first by
Chinese airlines, and work is ongoing to restart routes operated by U.K. carriers, the British
Embassy in China said in a statement Wednesday on social media. The embassy cited an
agreement between the U.K. Department for Transport and the Civil Aviation Administration
of China (CAAC). The embassy said passengers can also choose transfer flights via a third
country.
