Dec 03, 2020 (newstodate): China is enforcing a strict regime on airlines bringing in Covid-19 infected passengers.
   As one latest move, CAAC has suspended flights for a period by two Russian airlines that arrived from Moscow at Chinese airports with Covid-19 passengers.
   Ikar Airlines has thus been banned for one week after arriving at Zhengzhou with seven infected passengers, and Azur Airline has been banned for four weeks after arriving with 10 Covid-19 infected passengers at Xiamen Airport. In both cases, the suspensions start from December 7, 2020.
    Earlier, other airlines including Finnair, Air China, China Southern Airlines, Cambodia Angkor Air, and Emirates have had flights suspended for similar offenses.
    According to CAAC policies, flights are suspended for one week if the number of infected incoming passengers reaches five, and the suspension extends to four weeks if 10 passengers test positive.    
   On the positive side, airlines are allowed to increase their flights to two weekly rotations if all arrivals on a flight test negative for three successive weeks.
