How Trichy connects to Taipei
There is no non-stop flight between Trichy and Taipei, so every itinerary involves a change of aircraft. The cleanest routings use a single Southeast Asian hub. From TRZ you fly to Singapore, Kuala Lumpur or Bangkok — all served from Trichy — and pick up an onward leg to Taoyuan. The TRZ–Singapore sector runs about 4 hours, and Singapore–Taipei is roughly 4h 40m, so with a 2–4 hour layover you land in 9–12 hours total. Self-transfer via Chennai (MAA) is another common option, since Chennai has wider long-haul choice.
Airlines you will actually fly
On the first leg out of Trichy you will usually be on AirAsia, IndiGo or SriLankan, depending on hub. The onward Asia–Taipei leg is most often flown by Singapore Airlines or Scoot from Singapore, China Airlines or EVA Air from regional hubs, and Thai Airways from Bangkok.
- Via Singapore: Scoot and Singapore Airlines run frequent TPE flights.
- Via Kuala Lumpur: AirAsia and Malaysia Airlines connect to Taipei.
- Via Bangkok: Thai Airways, EVA Air and China Airlines.
For a protected single ticket, look at Singapore Airlines or a Star Alliance combination rather than two separate budget bookings.
Fares and when they dip
Economy round-trips on this routing typically land around ₹42,000–₹70,000 depending on season, hub and how far ahead you book. The cheapest fares usually appear in February–March and again in September, outside the Lunar New Year and summer peaks. Self-connecting on two low-cost tickets can shave costs but you carry the risk of a missed connection, so leave at least 4 hours between flights. Compare a Trichy origin against a Chennai to Taipei departure — the wider Chennai schedule sometimes beats TRZ on total price.
Baggage on a multi-airline trip
Baggage is the biggest gotcha on stitched itineraries. Full-service carriers like Singapore Airlines and EVA Air generally include 25–30 kg checked allowance in economy, while low-cost carriers such as Scoot and AirAsia sell baggage separately — budget for 20–25 kg of paid allowance. On a single through-ticket your bags are usually checked all the way to Taipei; on two separate bookings you must collect and re-check at the hub, which needs extra layover time. Always confirm cabin limits, often 7 kg on budget legs.
Arriving at Taoyuan airport
You land at Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TPE), about 40 km west of central Taipei. The Taoyuan Airport MRT reaches Taipei Main Station in roughly 35–50 minutes for around NT$160, while a taxi runs about 45 minutes and NT$1,000–1,200. Both terminals have 24-hour convenience stores and EasyCard machines — buy an EasyCard on arrival to ride the metro, buses and the high-speed rail link smoothly.
Why Indians fly to Taiwan
Taiwan draws a steady stream of Indian engineers and procurement staff tied to its semiconductor and electronics industry, plus a growing number of leisure visitors. Taipei pairs a dense night-market food culture with easy day trips to Jiufen, Taroko Gorge and the hot springs of Beitou. It is compact, very safe and friendly to first-time East Asia travellers. Spring and autumn deliver the most comfortable weather for sightseeing across the island.
Taiwan entry rules for Indians

Taiwan also offers conditional visa-free entry of up to 14 or 30 days if you already hold a valid visa or residence card for the US, Canada, UK, Schengen, Japan, Australia or New Zealand — apply for the free online travel authorisation certificate before you fly. Always check the latest rules on the BOCA website before booking.
