Beijing resumes its first passenger flight to Hubei Province

Beijing resumes its first passenger flight to Hubei Province on Sunday since the start of the COVID-19 outbreak, operated by Shenzhen Airlines, opening an air route for passengers from Hubei.

Special attention would be paid to ensuring the safety of passengers during the flight, while ground staff will conduct temperature checks, strictly collect relevant information – including ID, route to and from the city within 14 days, residence and contact information – and assist passengers in filling out electronic information cards.

The cabin crew will wear protective equipment throughout the flight and clean the toilets every hour. After the flight, a team of professional staff would disinfect the cabin, passenger ladder, corridor bridge and other common areas.

Passengers still need to wear masks and present health code "green pass" or a health certificate issued by the disease control department to enter or leave the terminal and board the flight.
