In the first half of 2010, 581 direct flights between Fuzhou and Taiwan and 91.494 passengers were released, increasing 9.19 times and 8.82 times, respectively.
In addition, statistics show that the number of inbound and outbound passengers through Fuzhou Airport has broken 300,000 barriers.
The growth of the number of flights and passengers between the two locations is attributed to the substantial increase in the direct flights between Fuzhou and Taiwan. In the first half of 2009, only one direct route between Fuzhou and Taiwan was available and the passengers could only have 2 flights to choose from. But now, the number has reached 28 per week.
