内蒙人乐过“台湾年” 首航包机预定爆满

记者15日从内蒙古旅游局获悉，内蒙古首家直飞台湾包机航线“呼和浩特—台湾”航线“年三十”首航游已经预定爆满。

Hohhot (CNS) -- The inaugural tour of Inner Mongolia's first nonstop charter flight from Hohhot to Taiwan is fully booked, according to the autonomous region's tourism bureau on Tuesday.

The first flight leaves on February 9, or Chinese Lunar New Year's Eve.

Four flights with about 160 seats each have been scheduled for every Saturday of the month, said Zhang Junfeng, deputy general manager of the Inner Mongolia New Century Comfort International Travel Agency, which launched the tour.

During Spring Festival in 2012, about 600 tourists from Inner Mongolia visited Taiwan. That number is expected to be over 1,000 this year, another employee at the travel agency said.
