can the visa-free transit be used multiple times?

Question

If I travel to a third country via China, can the free transit be enjoyed in both directions?E.g. I buy a return ticket from my home country to Beijing, and another return ticket from Beijing to the 3rd country inside of the dates of the first ticket.

Andrew, as long as your layover time for both legs of your trip is less than 72 hours, you can enjoy the 72 hour free transit in both directions.
