Any decisions to allow independent travel in Taiwan by mainland residents will require assessment and further negotiation by the Straits Exchange Foundation and the Association for Relations across the Taiwan Strait. The mainland's thriving economy cannot be ignored. Investments in the hotel industry rely on certain market strategies and they can further enhance the quality of Taiwan's overall tourist infrastructure.
不可諱言，大陸市場在崛起中，不容忽視，而飯店業的投資有其市場策略，可讓台灣整體旅遊設施的質量再往上提升；加上未來直航路線包含各種行程，旅行社可以多花心思包裝台北至上海、高雄至北京等不同路線的特色景點，甚至吸引到大陸玩的國際友人，機會很多。
