The first of 42 round-trip charter flights across the Taiwan Straits, designed for the Qingming Festival, or Tomb-Sweeping Day, arrived in Shanghai Pudong Airport at 1:30 p.m. March 30, 2007. Taiwan-based China Airlines has run the unprecedented flight for the Qingming Festival over the past 57 years.
