Travelers planning to visit Angkor Wat will have a new choice in late September. TransAsia Airways will launch a charter flight route between Taoyuan and Angkor starting September 23. The roughly 3.5-hour flight offers direct access to the UNESCO World Heritage Site — one of the Four Great Wonders of the East, the Angkor ruins — and features special ticket and group tour packages. Round-trip airfare starts at just NT$13,500, while 7-day 6-night group tours start at only NT$14,900.

Located in Siem Reap, Angkor International Airport is just five kilometers from the world-famous Angkor Wat. Upon arrival, you can immediately begin your sightseeing without wasting time. Angkor Wat is one of Southeast Asia’s most important archaeological sites. In 1992, UNESCO designated the Angkor ruins as a World Heritage Site. Angkor Wat is the best-preserved temple among the Angkor ruins and is renowned worldwide for its grand architecture and intricate bas-reliefs. It is the largest religious monument in the world and also a massive ancient water city — a globally renowned travel destination.

 

The TransAsia Airways Taoyuan–Angkor route will be operated using the A321 aircraft, which accommodates 182 passengers, offering three round-trip flights per week (on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Fridays). The flight departs Taoyuan at 12:20 PM and arrives at Angkor International Airport at 2:40 PM local time. The return flight departs Angkor International Airport at 3:40 PM local time and arrives back in Taoyuan at 8:10 PM Taiwan time, with a flight duration of about 3 hours and 20 minutes.

 

To celebrate the official launch, TransAsia Airways is offering special deals on both air tickets and group tours. Passengers departing before March 31, 2014, can enjoy economy class round-trip airfare starting at NT$13,500 (tax excluded, with a one-month ticket validity). In addition, TransAsia Airways has partnered with 10 authorized travel agencies to offer 7-day 6-night group tour packages starting at NT$14,900 (tax excluded) until September 29.
