This is a big policy change from China, a major step toward fully reopening travel with the rest of the world.
Currently, arriving passengers must quarantine for
- five days at a hotel
- then followed by three days at home
- down from a full 3 week quarantine period
China's National Health Commission announced on Monday that there would be no more quarantine requirement.
- people arriving in China will still need a negative virus test 48 hours before departure
- passengers will be required to wear protective masks on board
