Taiwan (China): Expect disruption during passage of Typhoon Mitag; maintain flexible itineraries

Members in or travelling to Taiwan, including the capital Taipei, until at least 1 October should plan journeys accounting for disruption during the passage of Typhoon Mitag. The Central Weather Bureau (CWB) has issued sea and land typhoon warnings for Hsinchu, Keelung, New Taipei, Taichung, Taipei and Taoyuan cities, as well as Hualien, Hsinchu, Lienchiang, Miaoli, Nantou, Taitung and Yilan counties. Schools and offices have been closed for 30 September in these areas, which are likely to be affected by heavy rain and strong winds. Flight disruption is possible, including at Taoyuan International Airport (TPE), which serves Taipei.
