The first direct passenger flight between China and Mexico since the COVID-19 pandemic landed in Mexico City on Saturday, marking a significant milestone in the resumption of international travel between the two nations.
Operated by a major Chinese airline, the flight departed from the Chinese mainland and arrived at Mexico City International Airport, symbolizing the strengthening ties and renewed connectivity between the two countries.
The resumption of direct flights is expected to boost tourism, facilitate business exchanges, and enhance cultural understanding between China and Mexico. Officials from both countries have expressed optimism about the positive impact on their respective economies.
Before the pandemic, direct flights between China and Mexico played a crucial role in supporting bilateral trade and tourism. The suspension of flights led to decreased economic activities and limited personal exchanges.
The reinstatement of the direct flight route comes as both countries continue to recover from the pandemic and ease travel restrictions. Travelers are advised to comply with health and safety protocols established by aviation authorities.
