After the implementation of the U.S. visa waiver program, China Airlines launched twice-weekly non-stop flights to Hawaii on June 2. Starting from the winter schedule on October 27, it will further collaborate with Hawaiian Airlines under a code-share agreement, providing passengers with up to 11 weekly round-trip flights between Taipei and Honolulu. China Airlines is the only Taiwanese carrier flying to Hawaii, and through this code-share partnership, it can offer travelers more convenient and diverse services.

China Airlines Chairman Sun Hongxiang stated: “Currently, China Airlines operates nine weekly round-trip flights between Taipei and Honolulu, including two non-stop flights and seven with a stopover in Tokyo, Japan. With the addition of two weekly code-share flights operated by Hawaiian Airlines, the total of 11 weekly round-trips between Taiwan and Hawaii will enhance business and tourism exchanges between the two regions.”

 

In addition to the Taipei–Honolulu route, the code-share arrangement also extends to segments between the U.S., Southeast Asia, Australia, and New Zealand. Passengers can take Hawaiian Airlines code-share flights to the Hawaiian Islands, as well as between Honolulu and cities on the U.S. West Coast. Travelers arriving in Taiwan from Hawaii can also connect via China Airlines flights to Southeast Asian cities such as Bangkok, Singapore, and Kuala Lumpur, as well as to Australia and New Zealand.
