The first international flight in more than five months has landed in China's capital with passengers greeted by airport staff in full hazmat suits as a ban on foreign arrivals in Beijing eased, AFP reported.
Footage from state broadcaster CCTV showed an Air China plane taxiing at the Beijing Capital International Airport after landing from the Cambodian capital Phnom Penh.
Chinese aviation authorities are allowing arrivals in Beijing under intense Covid-19 safety rules from Thailand, Cambodia, Pakistan, Greece, Denmark, Austria, Sweden and Canada — countries deemed low-risk for cross-border infections.
