The discount applies only to the base fare. Add-on services such as checked baggage, seat selection and in-flight meals, along with taxes, airport fees and payment handling charges, are excluded.

The offer covers routes connecting cities throughout Japan with Taipei/Taoyuan, Kaohsiung, Taichung and Tainan. Tigerair Taiwan has long focused on the Japanese market, serving not only major airports in the Tokyo and Kansai areas but also a range of regional airports with direct flights. Alongside the core Taipei/Taoyuan services, routes to Kaohsiung in the south, Taichung in central Taiwan and the historic city of Tainan are also included.
Choosing Your Destination
- Taipei/Taoyuan: Ideal for first-time visitors and a base for Jiufen, Shifen and northern Taiwan
- Kaohsiung: A warm port city known for seafood and night markets, and the gateway to Kenting
- Taichung: Home to Gaomei Wetlands and Miyahara, and the entry point for Sun Moon Lake
- Tainan: A city of historic sites and street food that is increasingly popular with repeat travelers
Route networks and schedules change seasonally, so check the app’s search screen for the sectors and days of operation actually available.

About Tigerair Taiwan
Tigerair Taiwan began operations in 2014 and is part of the China Airlines group, serving as Taiwan’s representative low-cost carrier. Operating an Airbus A320-based fleet, it flies short- and medium-haul international routes to Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia. Japan accounts for a particularly large share of its network, and the airline has actively developed services linking Taiwan with regional Japanese airports as well as major hubs. Because fares are unbundled and extras are purchased as needed, travelers packing light benefit the most.
Things to Note
- The discount is valid only for app bookings and cannot be used via the website, phone or travel agents
- If you forget to enter the coupon code, the discount will not apply and generally cannot be added retroactively
- Discounted seats are limited and popular routes may sell out soon after the sale opens
- Fares during peak periods such as year-end, New Year and Lunar New Year tend to be higher to begin with
- As an LCC, checked baggage is normally chargeable, and add-on fees are not discounted, so compare total costs with baggage-inclusive fare types
- Lower fare classes often carry restrictions on changes and refunds, so review the conditions before purchasing
Summary
A 12% discount may not sound dramatic, but the travel period extending to March 27, 2027 covers autumn holidays, the year-end and New Year season, spring break and graduation trips. Taiwan is only about three to four hours from Japan, making it well suited to quick weekend getaways. With the sale effectively lasting just two days through August 21, travelers with firm dates in mind should open the app and check availability early.
