China Changes Course on Flight Approval Formula
A move to allow more foreign carriers to resume service to China comes a day after the U.S. ordered a ban on passenger flights by Chinese airlines.

The Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) on Thursday said it would modify its policy on international passenger flights to allow more foreign carriers to resume service on a once-a-week basis, China’s official Xinhua News Agency reported. The move comes a day after the U.S. Department of Transportation issued an order that bars Chinese carriers from entry into the U.S. effective June 16 in response to China’s failure to grant entry approval to United Airlines and Delta Air Lines.
