Nieh said Thursday.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The supply of nonstop flights between North America and China falls short of demand, Nieh said, adding EVA, which operates 42 weekly flights to North America as well as cross-strait flights, could help fill some of the extra demand.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We didn&#8217;t have this market before (cross-strait) direct flights,&#8221; Nieh said.<\/p>\n<p>Nieh said the Expo 2010 Shanghai, which runs from May until October next year, will attract 70 million visitors, one-tenth of them from overseas.<\/p>\n<p>Taiwan and China started direct chartered flights in December and upgraded them to scheduled direct flights on Aug. 31. EVA, Taiwan&#8217;s second-largest airline by revenue after China Airlines Ltd., and affiliate UNI Airways Corp. operate more than 50 direct flights per week to China.<\/p>\n<p>EVA will work with the Shanghai Municipal Tourism Administration and North American, Chinese and Taiwanese travel agencies to arrange trips from North America to China using Taipei as a hub. The company will use the Expo 2010 Shanghai to promote the flights.<\/p>\n<p>EVA President James Jeng said the promotion could boost the company&#8217;s passenger load factor next year by two to three percentage points.<\/p>\n<p>In the January-September period EVA&#8217;s load factor dropped to 76.80% from 79.73% a year earlier. Revenue dropped 26.9%.<\/p>\n<!-- Either there are no banners, they are disabled or none qualified for this location! -->\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>EVA Airways Corp. is working with Shanghai&#8217;s government to promote flights between North America and the Chinese city ahead of the Expo 2010 Shanghai, in the hope of capturing a bigger share of the North American market and expanding cross-strait travel, EVA Executive Vice-president K.W.
