Due to their jobs, flight attendants frequently travel around the world, and many have become travel experts who share unique experiences and secret spots online. Today, China Airlines officially launched the blog “Travel Fun with Little Flower,” handpicking 20 of its staff members to share their favorite delicious foods and fun activities. It offers an extensive travel platform for those interested in going abroad.

The “Travel Fun with Little Flower” blog is run by China Airlines’ most travel-savvy employees, who share their personal experiences to offer the public and travelers the latest and hottest ways to explore. Based on the travel preferences of Taiwanese people, it features 20 major cities and 80 secondary cities, organized under four main themes—region, map, travel theme, and blogger search—and introduces content mainly in seven categories: attractions, food, museums, activities, shopping, natural scenery, and nightlife.
