In the first 10 months of this year, four cross-strait 'mini three links'
passenger routes — Xiamen–Kinmen, Quanzhou–Kinmen, Mawei–Matsu and Huangqi–Matsu
— operated 10,344 sailings and carried over 1.98 million passengers, up 3.0% and
25.2% YoY, respectively. Passengers from Taiwan exceeded 1.56 million, up 34.8%
YoY. Both overall passenger traffic and Taiwan passenger flows for the first 10
months have already surpassed full-year 2025 totals, underscoring rising
cross-strait travel demand.
