Chinese Military Drills: 150 flights changed routes

Taipei, August 5 (UNI) Chinese live-fire military drills near Taiwan forced airlines to change their routes as only 150 flights passed through the Taipei Flight Information Region (FIR) on Thursday, half of the normal daily average, Taiwan authorities said on Friday.
One of the busiest aviation hubs in Asia, the Taipei FIR normally sees an average of 300-plus flights per day, but about half of them took alternative routes on Thursday, CNA news quoted Taiwan Transportation and Communications Minister Wang Kwo-tsai as saying.
The alternative routes were either in the Fukuoka Flight Information Region or Manila Flight Information Region, according to the ministry's Civil Aeronautics Administration (CAA).
