The Taipei Kid

We are laughing our heads off at the recent glut of ads and advertorials we’ve been seeing in the English media here that trumpet a certain American airline’s new direct service to San Francisco. Yes, we are so happy that an American airline is increasing its service from the island, because, you know, American airline are so famous for their quality and comfort these days. As if they somehow can compete with the likes of Singapore, EVA and Malaysia, better airlines which happen to also have direct flights to the U.S. from Taipei.
