Air China Warns of Schengen Border Delays

Air China issued a travel advisory for non-EU travelers. Schengen border checkpoints are now applying extra manual checks. These checks work alongside electronic registration under the EU Entry Exit System.

The airline warned passengers about significantly longer airport queue times. Travelers with connecting flights should plan extra layover time. This applies to non-EU and non-Schengen passport holders.

Chinese passport holders in Denmark and Sweden face these checks at Schengen external borders. Biometric verification is mandatory for international trips. Allowing extra layover time helps avoid missed connections. Air China published the notice on its official website.
