Since 1995 some 800,000 Taiwanese travelers have been arriving at the Macau airport every year, either visiting Macau itself or passing through on the way to the mainland. There are also more than 100,000 a year who come by boat from Hong Kong.
根據澳門政府統計，九五年之後每年有八十萬台灣旅客在澳門機場入境、或停留澳門，或轉往大陸；另外，從香港坐船來澳門的，每年也有十餘萬人，兩者的數量加起來，與香港轉入大陸的數量幾乎不相上下。
