A new U.S. Dept. of Transportation ban on Chinese airlines is an added hardship for thousands of Chinese students who were already struggling to get home.
“I have to admit that it was a very draining process to have to constantly checking on the available tickets,” Owen, who showed NBC News the more than $20,000 worth of transactions he made to purchase plane tickets. “You have to bet on multiple tickets to be able to go back to China.”
But China’s Foreign Ministry has also used its platform to address reports of growing tension between Chinese and U.S. transportation authorities -- a reality that led to Wednesday’s U.S. ban on Chinese airlines. At the time, the DOT had said that Delta and United Airlines had submitted applications to the Civil Aviation Authority of China to resume flights in June.“We support and appreciate the U.S. government’s actions to enforce our rights and ensure fairness,” Delta said in a statement about Wednesday’s DOT order.
The department said the Chinese airline suspension is intended to “restore a competitive balance and fair and equal opportunity among U.S. and Chinese air carriers.”
