TransAsia Airways has launched an exclusive “Two-City Explorer Pass – Travel Two Cities in One Trip” campaign on its official website. Aimed at capitalizing on the e-commerce market and increasing direct interaction with customers, the airline has introduced an online discount section, mobile app promotions, occasional early-bird specials, and limited-edition giveaways with certain routes when booked directly through the official website.

For example, on Palau routes, it’s offering freebies when you book through the website in collaboration with ROXY swimwear. On Busan routes, in conjunction with the November Busan Game Show, TransAsia has partnered with leading online gaming company Soft-World International to provide exclusive virtual items for the online game “Star Wars: The Old Republic Online” with website ticket purchases. Compared to the same period last year, online ticket sales through the official website in the first half of this year have doubled, successfully boosting sales performance.

For students who enjoy traveling in groups, TransAsia Airways has also launched “Students’ Exclusive: Macau Trip – A Must This Summer.” From now until September 30th, students with valid ID from domestic universities or colleges can purchase round-trip tickets for the TransAsia Airways Taoyuan, Taichung, or Kaohsiung–Macau routes departing before September 30th to enjoy the following student discounts: two travelers (second person gets 20% off), three travelers (third person gets 50% off), or four travelers (fourth person travels free)—all must travel together and share the same booking reference number. The first 100 students to complete their bookings will also receive a complimentary TransAsia Q-version keychain. Additionally, those applying for the “Two-City Explorer Pass – Travel Two Cities in One Trip” campaign with phased departures are responsible for paying related taxes such as airport tax, fuel surcharges, and prize income tax.
