BEIJING (Reuters) – China’s aviation regulator on Tuesday suspended another eight incoming U.S. flights by U.S. airlines, bringing the total cancellation this year to 84, based on a Reuters tally.
The Civil Aviation Administration of China ordered United Airlines to suspend four more flights from San Francisco to Shanghai over COVID-19 cases, while ordering Delta Air Lines to cancel two flights from Seattle to Shanghai from the week of Jan. 31.
Two Dallas-to-Shanghai flights from American Airlines will be cancelled from Feb. 21 over COVID-19 cases, the regulator said.
