Ningbo Metro Line 12 opened yesterday
https://www.urbanrail.net/as/cn/ningbo/ningbo.htm
Total length of Ningbo Metro Line 12 is 61.5km, but it just has 10 stations, which means that average distance between each station is 6.8km.
So, this would be categorized into suburban rapid metro rather than subway.
スターフライヤー、北九州〜台北/桃園線を期間増便 1月21日〜2月9日、毎日運航に
Star Flyer adds Kitakyusyu - Taipei/Taoyuan flight from January 21, 2026 to February 9, 2026
https://www.traicy.com/posts/20260921382421/
7G801 Kitakyusyu（23：50）〜Taipei/Taoyuan（01：30+1）／January 21・23・25・26・28・30、February 1・2・4・6・8・9
7G800 Taipei/Taoyuan（03：00）〜Kitakyusyu（06：15）／January 22・24・26・27・29・31、February 2・3・5・7・9・10
Both of them are overnight flights. But, if passengers arrive at Taipei at 1:30, they have no place to kill time until morning. So, they will have to stay at nearby hotels.
Xiamen Metro Line 4 and Line 6 opened yesterday

The number of Xiamen Metro Lines increased dramatically.

When I visited Waitematā, which is previously known as Britomart, 13 years ago, Britomart was terminus, and there was no electric train.(Electrification was undergoing)
So, I'm surprised at improvement in the past 13 years.
For the first time, Japan has more than 100,000 centenarians

Despite plummetting population, Japan's government tightened up visa requirements to live up to requests from some supporters who want to remove immigrants.
マカオ航空、福岡〜マカオ線を期間運航 冬スケジュール期間中に最大週4往復
Air Macau launches seasonal Fukuoka - Macau flight. During winter season, there will be 4 flights per week per each direction
https://www.traicy.com/posts/20260915381843/
NX817 Fukuoka（14：00）〜Macau（16：25）／Mon・Wed・Fri・Sun（December 18, 2026〜January 3, 2027）、Mon・Wed・Fri（February 1〜12）
NX818 Macau（08：40）〜Fukuoka（13：00）／Mon・Wed・Fri（From December 18, 2026 to January 3, 2027、From February 1 to February 12, 2027）
NX818 Macau（12：55）〜Fukuoka（17：15）／Sun（December 18, 2026〜January 3, 2027）
While many flights between Japan and China are reduced, it's good news. But, I wish there would be more flights to Hong Kong rather than to Macau.
タイ国際航空、名古屋/中部〜バンコク線の深夜便再開 2027年1月19日から週5往復
Thai Airways resumes Nagoya/Centrair - Bangkok flight from January 19, 2027.
https://www.traicy.com/posts/20260914381772/
TG647 Nagoya/Centrair（00：30）〜Bangkok/Suvarnabhumi（05：10）／Tue・Wed・Thu・Fri・Sat（From January 19, 2027）
TG646 Bangkok/Suvarnabhumi（11：30）〜Nagoya/Centrair（18：55）／Mon・Tue・Wed・Thu・Fri（From January 18, 2027）
I wonder why there is no flight from Nagoya to Bangkok on Monday. It must be useful for Thai citizens who would like to enjoy Nagoya on weekends.
