Travelers from the central and southern Philippines will have another travel option to Taiwan when Tigerair Taiwan begins serving flights from Cebu to Taipei.

The new four-times weekly service will begin on December 1 with the following schedule:



(Taipei to Cebu) IT537 2235H-0130H (+1) – Tuesday/Thursday/Saturday/Sunday. Flights will arrive the following day.

(Cebu to Taipei) IT538 0230-0515H – Monday/Wednesday/Friday/Sunday

"Tigerair Taiwan’s presence in Cebu shall give Filipinos more access to fun, affordable, and memorable flights to Taipei. We look forward to this development before the year ends,” said Tigerair Taiwan spokesperson Bernard Hsu.

Cebu will be the Taiwanese low cost carrier’s first destination in the Philippines since it started operating in 2014, as it currently has 20 destinations in Japan, China, South Korea, Taiwan, and Thailand using Airbus A320 aircraft.



Tigerair Taiwan will join EVA Air and Philippines AirAsia, which both operates regular scheduled daily flights between Cebu and Taiwan. In addition, the route is also served on a seasonal basis by Philippine Airlines and charter flights by Mandarin Airlines.
