I thought Chinese airlines have the same restrictions. Only one flight per week per foreign country.

Looks like you’re right, the website shows the first SFO nonstop is July 3. Too late for my purposes, but still very strange that just a few days ago two separate agents told me the whole month was zeroed out for SFO under the latest schedule. I’d be very wary booking it after that experience, especially after they cancelled our July 1 tickets without any notification or offers to rebook.

they only stop the sale for 2-3 days on around end of May to adjust the schedule to fit in the transit timing. (Eg SIN-HKG was reschedule to arrive at 2245 instead of 0015 to catch other connecting flights) The agents did not see any flights for July during that period, so assume that the flights are cancelled.

already mention that it was zeroed out for few days to adjust the timing and meet transit requirements. CX have mention in their press release as well.

You forgot that nowadays the " U.S. people " you mentioned are Chinese citizens who wants to return to their own country. China is only blocking its own people from returning.
