At the end of 2011, Taiwan and Hong Kong finally reached a new air rights agreement, increasing the number of weekly flights between the two regions from 170 to 205. Flights are now readily available from Taoyuan, Taichung, and Kaohsiung, all offering direct routes to Hong Kong. With ample seat availability, airlines have begun offering discounted fares, and in turn, Hong Kong independent travel packages have also launched limited-time ultra-low-price deals on the market. China Airlines is offering a 3-day, 2-night package tax-inclusive starting from just 7,999 RMB, while Hong Kong Airlines starts from just 8,888 RMB.
