Macau.- Macau’s International Airport has only received a single-digit number of daily arrival flights during the month of May.

The airport has been handling on average just four commercial flights a day as the impact of the Covid-19 crisis continues to be felt.

During May, Macau was operating routes to nine destinations across Greater China, North Asia and Southeast Asia said CAM.

This included: mainland China cities Xiamen, Nanning, Chongqing, Shanghai and Beijing, operated by Air Macau and Air China.

Other routes included Taipei in Taiwan, operated by Air Macau, EVA Air and Starlux; the Japanese cities of Tokyo and Osaka, operated by Air Macau; and the Philippine capital Manila, operated by Philippine Airlines.

The airport operator expects the number of flights to grow in June so long as travel, border and quarantine restrictions are eased across Asia.
