This year’s No. 6 typhoon Kanu has turned into a light typhoon and moved away from Taiwan. However, it turned to the northeast and hit the Okinawa region of Japan for the second time. Many flights were suspended. A tourist from Taiwan who was visiting Okinawa said helplessly that she had been stranded in Okinawa for 4 days and was originally scheduled to return to Taiwan on July 31, but the flight was cancelled, which made her employee travel in Okinawa directly change from 3 days to 10 days.

According to “ETTODAY” report, Ms. Lu, a Taiwanese tourist, posted on Facebook on the 4th that she received the news that the flight was suspended on the 5th at noon. Everyone gathered to discuss, listening to the wind and rain outside, while thinking about how to solve the flight change. The problem, the mood is instantly bad. Because the typhoon warning continued to be issued, businesses and public transportation were also closed, so I could only stay in the hotel, really helpless.
Ms. Lu said helplessly, “I really want to go home. I really don’t think it’s cool to change from 3 days to 10 days. We are also people who have a livelihood to maintain. Here is the rhythm of burning money every day. This experience abroad is really good. Never forget it.”
