They offer a free harbour cruise to pax travelling to Hong Kong. In addition to the above-mentioned incidents, in 1993, I think, they overshot the runway in a storm and the 747 ended up floating in the water. Fortunately no-one was killed. It was a magnificent sight a couple of weeks later seeing the entire plane (minus the tail that had been blown off to clear obstruction to the runway approach) being hoisted up on straps by a floating crane. The plane had come from Taipei. Minutes before they landed a BA flight from London decided not to try landing and diverted to Taipei. A lesson there methinks. BTW to be fair the business class cabin service on China Airlines is excellent.
