China Airlines denies rumours of suspended Taipei-New York route
China Airlines Monday denied rumours that it could suspend direct flight services between Taiwan Taoyuan International and New York, adding that all flights are operating normally. Yang Chung-hui, president of CAL's New York office, said she had received no information from CAL headquarters about any suspension, and added that the carrier's summer schedule will not be affected. However, travel agents, govt officials and overseas students are taking the unofficial information seriously, asking CAL not to shut down the 34-year-old service. According to an unattributed rumour, the carrier, troubled by huge losses and protests by flight crew about insufficient rest time working on the route, will replace the original service through code-sharing with other airlines to transfer via Los Angeles or San Francisco to New York. <br/>
