China Airlines is the
flag carrier of the Republic of China on Taiwan. The airline is not
state-owned but belongs to China Aviation Development Foundation
.However, the foundation belongs to the Republic of China. The airline,
based at Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport and with headquarters in
Taipei, currently flies to many destinations in Asia, Europe, North
America and the South Pacific. Because of political obstacles over the
establishment of the Three Links, it does not have regularly scheduled
flights into mainland China; passengers to mainland China must go
through a third port.
The most popular third
port is Hong Kong, followed by Macau while passengers may also fly to
Japan or Korea before transferring to a China-bound flight. Its main
competitor is EVA Air.
