Recently, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, Customs and Border Protection, and the Transportation Security Administration issued a notice that, effective from 12:00 AM EDT on September 14, they would lift restrictions on flights arriving from China (excluding Macau and Hong Kong) and certain other countries. This notice has been widely misinterpreted in China as "The U.S. has lifted the travel ban on China, and direct flights to the U.S. are available after September 14." What is the reality? Worldway Group provides a brief summary for you.
Previously, due to the needs of epidemic prevention and control, the U.S. government announced that starting from 5:00 PM EDT on February 2, travelers who had visited mainland China, the Schengen Area of Europe, Iran, Brazil, etc., within the past 14 days (excluding immediate family members of U.S. citizens and permanent residents) would be temporarily prohibited from entering the United States. This is what we commonly refer to as the "Travel Ban," and this travel ban remains in effect.
Subsequently, on February 4 and February 7, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security issued arrival restrictions for flights carrying passengers who had traveled or were traveling from China and other countries, which is what we commonly refer to as "Arrival Restrictions." These restrictions stipulated that affected flights could only land and enter through 15 designated airports to facilitate centralized COVID-19 screening upon entry.
In fact, statements from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) indicate that because COVID-19 patients may be asymptomatic or have only mild symptoms, symptom-based screening has limited effectiveness. Based on this, the U.S. government decided to lift the restrictions on flights arriving from China (excluding Macau and Hong Kong) and certain other countries, effective from 12:00 AM EDT on September 14. In other words, this only cancels the COVID-19 entry screening measures at U.S. airports—that is, it terminates the enhanced COVID-19 screening for international passengers at the 15 U.S. airports—and has nothing to do with lifting the 14-day travel ban for China and other countries, nor does it mean direct flights to the U.S. are available.
Of course, the U.S. stopping airport screening and lifting the 15-airport entry designation significantly simplifies the entry process for passengers. At the same time, international airports other than these 15 can now receive flights from China, increasing the possibility of a full resumption of flights. This may be a positive signal for the future lifting of travel restrictions on countries like China. Worldway Group will continue to monitor the latest news and share it with you as soon as possible.
