Source language: Swedish

Det är precis lika sagolikt vackert som sitt rykte. Vitskimrande mot himlen. Inte ens de tusentals besökarna som väller fram över allt lyckas förstöra känslan av evighet.
Ett monument som Taj Mahal - en del av världsarvet - måste naturligtvis kunna ses av hela världen och turisterna kommer också i miljontals. Förra året var antalet besökare 2,5 miljoner. Från England finns till och med direktcharter.

Target language: English

It's just as incredibly beautiful as they say. White, shimmering toward the sky. Not even the thousands of visitors pouring all over are able to destroy the sense of eternity.
A monument like the Taj Mahal - one of the world heritage sites - must of course be able to be seen by the whole world, and the tourists arrive in millions. Last year the number of visitors was 2.5 million. From England there is even a direct charter.

Is the last sentence okey or wouldn't "From England there is even a direct charter" be better?

Yes..I think that you are right Piagabriella, to be correct and not meaning only it should be as you assume...
"From England there is even a direct charter, as well."

kafetzou, Is it alright to formulate like that?

I would kick the "as well" totally. "Till och med" means "even"

oops.... yes, there should not be 'as well'(my fault) Piagabriella didn't write that.

So kafetzou, should this be corrected?

I think ? that
"From England there is a direct charter, as well."
is the same meaning as
"From England there is even a direct charter"

The meaning is not the same, pias. "there is even a direct charter" implies that this is an interesting, somewhat surprising piece of information, whereas "there is a direct charter as well" means that this is just an additional piece of information.

I don't speak Swedish, so I don't know what "och" means, assuming that is the word in question. If it's the same as German "auch", it should be "even".
