China’s isolationism between 2019 and 2023 measured by air travel connectivity:

The country lost 84% of its airline seat capacity to the US, 53% to Indonesia, 49% to Japan, and 23% to Germany.

Over the same period, China’s domestic airline seat capacity grew by 23%

China's air travel connectivity took a hit between 2019-2023, losing significant seat capacity to key destinations. However, the growth in domestic airline seat capacity indicates a focus on strengthening internal travel infrastructure during this period.
