Beijing's August 12 government report says the airport had already handled more than 10 million inbound and outbound passenger trips this year as of August 5, with foreign-national traffic up 27.8 percent year on year.

For patients and accompanying relatives planning arrival through Beijing, the practical point is the support around border processing. The notice says multilingual officers are deployed on site, fast-track inspection lanes stay open around the clock, and eligible travelers can complete temporary entry-permit issuance and inspection through a one-stop process.

This update can help with itinerary planning, but it is not a guarantee about wait times, airline operations, or entry eligibility in an individual case. Travelers should still confirm passport, visa or transit-permit requirements directly with the airline and immigration authorities before departure.
