It's Republic of China. Or here on FT, usually Taiwan will do, so not to confuse with China. Discussion about Taiwan happens in our Asia Forum, while China goes to China Forum. ;)

Good catch - that error carried forward from a Traveller's Century Club list. The TCC needs to correct the designation on the checklist, although the TCC checklist itself is somewhat unique.

(bolding mine)

From the Alphabetical Directory of TCC Countries, Taiwan is clearly listed under letter T, with ROC on the side (meaning Republic of China). I can't find the mistaken "Republic of Taiwan."

Don't try to blame others when the designated party is not at fault. Own your personal mistakes. ;)

It has made dreams come true for me.

In the past year and a half, I was able to book 2 RT F seats on LH to go to Sweden to see family I hadn't seen in 13 years. We spend a couple days in FRA on the way home and got to ride in some ridiculous cars on the tarmac. All while giggling like school girls.

I have a trip to Santiago and Easter Island coming up in February that I never would have taken without FT.

We redeemed miles to go see his family in SD. Normally I would never do that, but flights from BOI to South Dakota are ridiculously expensive. It was a trip we wouldn't have taken otherwise.

And I still have around 500-600K miles between my hubby and I.
