Those travelling to the ISSF World Cup Rifle/Pistol in Ningbo, China, have been encouraged by organisers to make Shanghai Airport their port of entry and exit to avoid major delays in Beijing.

On the 3rd of September, a major military parade is to be held in the capital city to mark the 80th anniversary of Victory Day in China.

Many athletes and personnel are expected to arrive on or before the 6th of September, with the Organising Committee saying there cannot be a seamless entry process for firearms via Beijing during this time.

"We strongly recommend selecting Shanghai (PVG Airport) as your port of entry and exit," said the Ningbo organisers.

"Our dedicated staff at PVG are fully equipped to facilitate and ensure the efficiency of your entry and exit procedures.

"Once your revised flight arrangements are confirmed, please promptly share the details with us."

The ISSF World Cup Rifle/Pistol is the last leg of the World Cup prior to the ISSF World Championships and ISSF World Cup Final and is set to take place from the 7th to the 15th of September.
