HK ->TW flights?

Hey

How much does everybody pay for flights between HKG and Taipei? For those that know...

I mean surely there is some mistake! Tapping in on some online flight sites a HGK->Taipei flight costs MORE than a flight from UK to HKG which to me seems insane! When it is less than the distance from Leeds to Manchester on the maps, or is China being an arse with Taiwan and thus charging shit loads to fly between the two places?

I mean it is so close I could swim the distance!

Thanks




Life is short very...

Wow, sounds expensive. The economy class ticket is never more than US$300 for a round trip and even business class cost less than US$650. It's only a 1-hour flight! Best to Google travel agency Hong Kong and find out the best rates.

during to off season if you joined one of the 4 day tours from HK which includes return flight,
hotel and food the price could be as low as HK$1,500
the price for return airfair only during this time is about $1,200-1500.
High season you need to checkwith travel agent

most of time I pay hk$1200 with CX

but depends on date & flight occupancy. The highest price should be $3500-4000 during CNY

where did you find a so expensive price? hk-uk should be at least $8000. No way a hk-tpe flight can be that expensive, even business is around $3000 in low season
