I also think you are taking quite a risk by leaving and planning to come back in based on what I know about your current situation. It’s not as easy as you think it’s gonna be to get the QR code approved. I’d definitely try and apply for pre approval before you leave China.

According to WSJ, there'll be no reopening until at least late 2022 China wants the 2022 Winter Olympics (February) and the 20th CCP Congress (October, where Xi is expected to seek a 3rd term as general secretary, the most of any leader since Mao) to conclude before risking further opening. |

Obviously we all know the number is symbolically meaningless and they are going to do whatever they want to do. This is why I don't really bother with discussions of vaccine efficacy etc in China, there is also a better forum for that https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/coronavirus-travel-773/ -enormous production capacity -enough money to fund free production/distribution -a government that can compel pretty much everyone to get vaxed I normally oppose heavy handed policy initiatives, but I'm cool with a top down approach in this case (as long as they spare pregnant women and otherwise vulnerable people). Chinese would also appreciate a return to normal. |

Maybe I'm joining moondog in the overly optimistic camp, but I don't see this as bad news. I assume this refers to general travel, not business travel, and I don't think anyone expected that to resume in the short term. Australia also said mid 2022. Some timeline is better than no timeline.

If it’s anything like the Macau-China quarantine free corridor. Everyone will be allowed to utilize it except foreigners.

I think travelinmanS is saying you can't utilise it unless you're already inside in Mainland China or Macau.

No. We actually can't use it yet but Taiwan and HK docs are okay.
- non-residents not eligible for the most relaxed Return2HK scheme (no quarantine) https://www.coronavirus.gov.hk/eng/r...hk-scheme.html - however non-residents arriving from Mainland China still eligible for 7-days at-home quarantine (which is the next best thing in the HK grand scheme of things) https://www.coronavirus.gov.hk/eng/inbound-travel.html --- even the next most privileged set of arrivals (Australian and New Zealand arrivals) have to do 7 days at a hotel |

Looks like I’ll be taking the CAN-LAX-CAN route for my august roundtrip back to the US. Now I just need to decide very quickly if I should get a Chinese vaccine before I leave.
