Tigerair Taiwan Co., Ltd. Overview

Pro stress-test →

Tigerair Taiwan is a Taiwanese low-cost airline based at Taoyuan International Airport. It is the only LCC in Taiwan following the collapse of TransAsia Airways and V Air in 2016 and also the only airline left with Tigerair branding. The airline offers low-fare routes to cities in Japan, Korea, Thailand, Vietnam, Macau, and more.

Strategic Profile

Pro stress-test →

Tigerair Taiwan is now 100% owned by China Airlines after it purchased its remaining stake back from Tiger Airways Holdings in 2016. As a subsidiary of China Airlines, Tigerair Taiwan leverages the extensive experience and network of its parent company to provide reliable and affordable air travel options. The airline's focus on low-cost operations makes it a popular choice for both leisure and business travelers seeking budget-friendly options without compromising on service quality.

Competitive Landscape

Pro stress-test →

Tigerair Taiwan is the only LCC in Taiwan, giving it a unique market position. However, it faces indirect competition from full-service carriers including China Airlines (parent company), EVA Air, and STARLUX Airlines, which offer competitive pricing and superior in-flight service. The lack of domestic LCC competition in Taiwan is balanced by the availability of premium-positioning regional carriers from competing countries.

Industry Context

Tigerair Taiwan Co., Ltd. operates in Passenger Airlines.
