Mainland civil aviation authorities on Tuesday condemned Taipei's disregard for the well-being of people across the Taiwan Straits by blocking a plan for additional Spring Festival flights.
"Taipei must bear all the subsequent consequences of such an unreasonable practice that is obstructing family reunions," the Civil Aviation Administration of China said in a statement.
Two Chinese mainland airlines said on Tuesday they have had to cancel 176 flights after Taipei blocked a plan for additional Spring Festival flights, citing concerns over new routes across the Taiwan Straits.
