China Airlines is to inaugurate Taipei-Brisbane flights beginning September 15th. Initially, China Airlines will fly to Brisbane two times per week, using the company's dual-class Airbus 340-300 wide body jets, with their newly introduced 60-inch Business Class seat pitch.

The flights will depart CKS International Airport every Monday and Thursday at 22:30, and arrive in Brisbane at 9:05 the following morning. The return flights will leave Brisbane at 12:05 in the afternoon, and arrive in Taipei at 18:50 on the same day.
