Flights Begin From China to Taiwan per the NY Times. For business people in Taiwan, this is great news saving money and time. The only real loser in this is Hong Kong, where many people had to fly to, then catch a new flight to China. There were occasional flights during Chinese New Year in the past.

There will be an increase in tourism from China. Is this good or bad? Hard to say, it may actually be positive as people see a country that is ethnic Chinese that is also democratic. Plus the money for Taiwan generated by tourism. Taiwan has a lot of great places to visit and a world class museum of Chinese antiquities.
