Company Profile

Tigerair Taiwan (IATA Code: IT) is a low-cost carrier (LCC) airline based at Taipei Taoyuan International Airport. On December 16, 2013, when China Airlines Group celebrated its 54th anniversary, and the start of its 55th year, China Airlines chairman Sun Hung-Hsiang announced that the airline will enter the LCC market by investing in a joint venture with Singaporean airline group Tigerair Holdings to set up Tigerair Taiwan.
