China Airlines to Launch Taoyuan - Wuhan Flights in January

China Airlines (CAL) is to launch direct scheduled flights linking Taoyuan and Wuhan on 26 January 2011.

Wuhan will become the 17th mainland Chinese destination served by CAL since the opening of flights across the Taiwan Strait.

CAL will operate the Taoyuan-Wuhan service twice weekly on Wednesdays and Saturdays using Airbus 330-300 aircraft equipped with 36 seats in Business Class and 277 in Economy Class.

To celebrate the Wuhan route’s inauguration and CAL’s 51st anniversary, CAL is offering special discounts for passengers purchasing Taoyuan-Wuhan tickets before the end of February 2011, with the NT$12,100 Economy Class fare reduced to just NT$10,600.
