If the growth of the Chinese aviation market is allowed to continue unchecked and without concern for equality of access in the market, flights will continue to be relinquished to Chinese carriers at the expense of U.S. workers and businesses, Airlines for America open letter, via CNN.

CNN reports that the Biden administration said in February that it would allow Chinese airlines to increase the number of direct passenger flights to the United States.

At the time, U.S. officials granted Chinese carriers approval to make 50 weekly round-trip flights, increased from 35 amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

Prior to the pandemic, over 150 weekly flights were allowed.
