Cambodia Airways flights have been halted in China due to COVID-19 cases.

A Cambodia Airways flight has been canceled after passengers tested positive for COVID-19, according to China's civil aviation agency.

After five passengers tested positive on the trip on August 4, the Civil Aviation Administration of China (CAAC) said Tuesday on its website that flight KR961 from Phnom Penh to Chengdu will be suspended for two weeks, beginning August 23.

According to the CAAC, the airline is not permitted to shift the initial flight allotment to other routes.

If the number of passengers testing positive for COVID-19 reaches five, the CAAC guideline states that flights will be suspended for two weeks.
