China Airlines to Launch Taipei-Osaka-New York Flights

China Airlines this week alters its flights between Taipei and New York with a stop over in Osaka, Japan, instead of Anchorage, Alaska. CAL will operate three round-trip flights per week on the route untilising Boeing 747-400 aircraft.

At present, CAL already operates seven flights a week between Taipei and Osaka, and this schedule change will bring the total to ten flights a week.

To celebrate the new service, CAL is offering a NT$2,000 discount off Taipei-Osaka round-trip tickets, reducing the fare to NT$11,700 for those who purchase tickets through CAL’s website before 31 May 2011.

The airline has also launched a new three-day, two-night “Fun in Spring Promotion” Dynasty Package tour for NT$13,000 and up per person, which includes economy airfare, two nights' accommodation in Osaka and a one-way transportation coupon to get from Kansai airport to downtown Osaka.

CAL is also offering free transfers to any point in the eastern United States for those purchasing tickets before 16 June 2011.
