Visa Run showdown

I’ve been back in Taiwan for two years, equating to 6-7 visa runs or tri-annually x 2.

I work during the week and visa runs traditionally involve me going to Hong-Kong for an hour or so, due to the regular interval of flights available, and lack of available time slots.

I need to do this for another two years, until I reach the age of 35. I’m not hot on repeating the first half.

Anyone have anything more exciting to contribute?

ps : the HK ticket is NT$6800, if it can work out less than that, I would start doing the runs with SO, and not feel so bored.

One Chinglish word for you: EZFLY. (Chinese only site, I’m afraid). Annoyingly the cheapest fare currently showing is about NT$5,500 but I frequently see offers for around NT$3,500 and Tokyo for NT$7,000.
