United Airlines recent issued a statement with regards to cancellation of its flights to Hong Kong due to mandatory COVID-19 testing concerns. “Due to recent changes in testing protocol at Hong Kong International Airport, United flights to and from Hong Kong are suspended through July 10 westbound and their corresponding returns.
