Japan's transport ministry has decided to conditionally accept direct flights from Hong Kong to airports in Fukuoka, Naha, and one near Sapporo provided there are no passengers who have stayed in China's mainland within seven days before.
The ministry had initially planned to ban them amid a surge in the number of coronavirus infections in China.
Japan will restrict departures and arrivals of direct flights connecting Japan with mainland China, Hong Kong and Macau to four airports -- Narita, Haneda, Kansai and Chubu.
Japan also requested that Cathay Pacific Airlines, Hong Kong Airlines, and Hong Kong Express Airways halt their flights connecting Hong Kong with the New Chitose, Fukuoka, and Naha airports.
But following talks with carriers, Japan changed the plan.
Japan will require all travelers from mainland China and those who visited it within seven days to test for COVID-19 upon arrival.
