Our treaties between the US and Japan initially only allowed Northwest and Pan Am ( bought by United) and the 2 freight carriers FEXEX and UPS.

China just allowed additional flights from the US to mainland China Continental and American received them.
So the cargo operators are governed based on the treaty the US has with the country.

Would such a treaty regarding cargo operators be specific in the requirement of nonstop freight flights? Or would the freight operator be permitted to make a fuel stop of his choice?
My original statement was that the treaty did not regulate the freight carrier to the point of restricting a fuel stop.
