Many tourists arriving by air from Southeast Asia or Southern China have had to reluctantly abandon ther durians. Because their particular scent might make the flight crew and other passengers feel unwell, it is prohibited to carry durians onto a flight, or even to put them into the cabin baggage. Recently Baiyun airport (Guangzhou city) reported that nowadays the fruit can be sent over by freight planes, so if an individual wants to take durians home, he or she is required to prepare a package and deliver it to the freight transport agency so they can handle it. Currently approximately 2 tons of Durians leave Baiyun airport every day.
