China Airlines has inaugurated a new daily flight service linking Taichung and Okinawa, enhancing its presence in the Japanese market. This development increases the airline’s total weekly round-trip flights between Taiwan and Japan to over 170. The new route is operated by an Airbus A321neo aircraft, with Flight CI310 scheduled to leave Taichung at 10:00 a.m., arriving in Okinawa by 12:40 p.m. The return journey, Flight CI311, departs Okinawa at 1:40 p.m. and touches down in Taichung at 2:10 p.m.
The airline is set to expand this service further by adding a second daily flight starting August 13. The additional service, Flight CI312, will depart Taichung at 3:20 p.m., reaching Okinawa at 6:00 p.m. The corresponding return flight, CI313, is planned to leave Okinawa at 7:00 p.m., arriving back in Taichung at 7:30 p.m.
With these new services, China Airlines will be operating approximately 30 round-trip flights to Okinawa each week. This expansion is part of the airline’s strategy to bolster connectivity between Taiwan and Japan, offering increased travel options for both business and leisure passengers.
China Airlines’ initiative to enhance its flight network reaffirms its commitment to serving the growing demand for travel between these two regions. By offering additional flights, the airline aims to provide more flexibility and convenience to its passengers, strengthening the link between Taiwan and Japan.
