UPDATE 1-Airlines scrap, reroute flights as China fires live missiles in drills near Taiwan
Airlines have cancelled flights to Taipei and rerouted others to avoid airspace nearby that has been closed to civilian traffic during Chinese military exercises sparked by U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan. China deployed scores of planes and fired live missiles near Taiwan on Thursday in its biggest-ever drills in the Taiwan Strait, set to run until noon local time (0400 GMT) on Sunday in six zones encircling much of the island.

Airlines cancel, reroute flights during Chinese military drills near Taiwan
Some airlines have cancelled flights to Taipei and rerouted others using nearby airspace that has been closed to civilian traffic during Chinese military exercises sparked by U.S. House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi's visit to Taiwan. China deployed scores of planes and fired live missiles near Taiwan on Thursday in its biggest-ever drills in the Taiwan Strait, set to run until noon local time (0400 GMT) on Sunday in six zones encircling much of the island. The airspace involved is comparatively small, but the disruption is hampering travel between Southeast Asia and Northeast Asia.

Singapore to resume operations of Changi Airport terminal 4 after two-year hiatus
Singapore will resume operations of the fourth terminal at its main airport on Sep. 13, the Changi Airport Group (CAG) said on Friday, as the Southeast Asian travel hub recovers from the more than two years of COVID-19 pandemic-induced disruptions. Sixteen airlines, including Cathay Pacific, AirAsia and Vietnam Airlines, will relocate to the terminal progressively, the statement added. The city-state had earlier announced in May that it will resume building a fifth terminal at its Changi Airport as regional and global air and passenger traffic rebounds from the pandemic.
