The Taipei-Manila air route had been flown by only three airlines, China Airlines (CAL), EVA Air, and Philippine Airlines (PAL). Since flights were halted, passengers have had to travel between the two destinations via Hong Kong. This has hit business travelers hardest.
由於台北至馬尼拉的航線原來就只有華航、長榮、與菲航三家航空公司經營，停航後，旅客必須改以在香港轉機的方式往返兩地，票價與飛行時數都將大幅增加，商務旅客受到影響最大。
