According to the latest data from the Gaoqi Border Checkpoint at the Xiamen Border Control Station, the number of inbound and outbound passengers on the Xiamen “Xiaosantong” route exceeded 1.74 million this year, with Taiwanese compatriots accounting for nearly 1.4 million, accounting for about 80%. Both figures surpassed last year, setting a new high number of passengers in a single year since the resumption of flights in 2023. With the introduction of policies related to the Cross-Strait Integrated Development Demonstration Zone one after another, the travel needs of Taiwanese compatriots have expanded from traditional family visits to diverse types such as business negotiations, youth research, competition exchanges, and cultural tourism experiences. In August of this year, the route's monthly passenger traffic exceeded 200,000 passengers for the first time, setting a record for passenger flow in a single month since the opening of navigation. The passenger flow structure showed positive changes. More than 70,000 “first-time” Taiwanese compatriots entered the country this year, an increase of 70% over the previous year. Nearly half of the compatriots who have entered Taiwan in the past 3 months have stayed for more than 4 days, and immersive sightseeing experiences have become a new trend.
