A total of 12 China-Japan flight routes have suspended all flights as of 10:00 a.m. on Monday, according to flight-tracking app DAST, adding to a recent wave of cancellations by Chinese tourists. The fallout, triggered by diplomatic tensions following Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi's remarks on China's Taiwan, is raising concerns among hotels, retailers, and other tourism operators. The trend has also drawn extensive attention from international media, which are closely tracking its potential economic impact.
