March and December are Taipei's sweet spots: mild weather, lower crowds, and fares that haven't yet peaked. Avoid Chinese New Year (late January to mid-February) and Golden Week (late April to early May) unless you book at least three months ahead. Typhoon season from July through September brings weather risk alongside higher demand.
| Month | Price Band | Demand | Travel note |
|---|---|---|---|
| January | Mid | Medium | Cool and dry; good sightseeing weather before CNY rush. |
| February | Budget | Low | Post-CNY lull; cheapest fares of the year, quieter streets. |
| March | Mid | Medium | Cherry blossoms at Yangmingshan; one of the best months to visit. |
| April | Mid | Medium | Warm and pleasant; book early to avoid Golden Week overlap. |
| May | Peak | High | Golden Week demand spikes; fares rise sharply from late April. |
| June | Mid | Medium | Humid and warm; Dragon Boat Festival draws domestic crowds. |
| July | Peak | High | Peak summer heat and typhoon risk; fares elevated for school holidays. |
| August | Peak | High | Hottest month; typhoon disruptions possible, book flexibly. |
Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport, IATA TPE · 40 km from Taipei city centre · 35 km from Xinyi District.
Taoyuan handles the vast majority of international flights into Taipei across two terminals, with Terminal 2 generally considered the smoother experience for arrivals. Major carriers including China Airlines, EVA Air, Cathay Pacific, Singapore Airlines, and Japan Airlines all operate from here. Immigration queues move efficiently by regional standards, and the airport's English signage is thorough throughout.
| Transport | Cost (approx) | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Airport MRT (Express) | TWD 160 (~USD 5) | 35 min to Taipei Main Station |
| Airport MRT (Commuter) | TWD 160 (~USD 5) | 50-60 min, stops at Taoyuan HSR |
| Taxi / Uber | TWD 1,000-1,400 (~USD 31-44) | 40-70 min depending on traffic |
Taipei Songshan Airport, IATA TSA · 6 km from Taipei city centre · 3 km from Zhongshan District.
Songshan sits inside the city limits, making it a genuinely convenient option for travellers connecting from Tokyo Haneda, Seoul Gimpo, or Shanghai Hongqiao on short regional hops. The terminal is compact and efficient, with immigration typically clearing in under 20 minutes. It is not served by most long-haul carriers, so check your itinerary carefully before heading to the wrong airport.

Taiwan's two flagship carriers dominate the Taipei route map, but a strong field of Asian full-service and low-cost airlines keeps fares competitive from every major regional hub.

Consistently award-rated, EVA Air flies direct to TPE from Tokyo, Seoul, Singapore, Bangkok, and Los Angeles with reliable on-time performance.
Cathay connects Taipei via Hong Kong from dozens of cities; the short HKG-TPE hop is one of Asia's most frequent shuttle routes.
Singapore Airlines flies direct SIN-TPE daily; its in-flight product and lounge access make it the premium choice from Southeast Asia.
Scoot offers low-cost direct flights from Singapore, making it the budget pick for travellers who want to keep the base fare lean.

Direct routes are available from Tokyo, Seoul, Hong Kong, Singapore, Bangkok, Manila, and Los Angeles, with connecting services from most other major cities. You can compare direct and connecting options side by side on Laters.com.
February is typically the cheapest month to fly to Taipei, as the post-Chinese New Year lull pushes fares to their annual low. Average one-way fares from regional hubs can drop to around USD 110 or below during this window. March is also competitively priced with better weather, making it an excellent alternative for budget-conscious travellers.
Yes. Laters.com supports BNPL providers including Atome, GrabPay Later, and hoolah at checkout for flights to Taipei.

Approval is instant and no lengthy application is required.
Most BNPL providers used on Laters.com for East Asia routes, including Atome and hoolah, do not perform a hard credit inquiry, so your credit score is generally not affected by the approval process.

Singapore Travel Agent LicenceTA04059Flying to Taipei rewards the planner who books six to ten weeks out and avoids the Golden Week and Chinese New Year price spikes. Fares from Southeast Asian hubs are genuinely competitive, and the city's cost-of-living index makes every dollar stretch further once you land. It suits the traveller who wants urban density without the chaos: great food, excellent transit, and a pace that feels deliberately chosen rather than imposed.
Terminal 2 at Taoyuan does the thing airports are supposed to do and mostly don't: it gets out of your way, with thorough English signage and immigration queues that actually move. Twenty-five-odd airlines fly in from Tokyo, Seoul and Hong Kong at fares under 130 dollars, so the connections are less a gamble than a given. BNPL coverage from Atome to JKOPay means you can spread the cost without much fuss, and once you land, that 54.7 cost-of-living index does the rest. Just don't show up expecting a beach; Taipei's argument is xiaolongbao and Yangmingshan, not sand.

Taiwan offers visa-free entry for nationals of over 60 countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, European Union member states, Japan, South Korea, and Australia, typically for stays of up to 90 days. Travellers from Southeast Asian countries including the Philippines, Indonesia, Thailand, and Vietnam should check the latest requirements via Taiwan's Bureau of Consular Affairs website at boca.gov.tw, as rules change periodically.
The Airport MRT Express train is the fastest and most reliable option, running from TPE to Taipei Main Station in approximately 35 minutes for TWD 160 (around USD 5). Taxis and Uber are also available from the arrivals hall and cost roughly TWD 1,000 to 1,400 depending on traffic and destination, taking 40 to 70 minutes. The MRT is strongly recommended unless you have heavy luggage or an early-morning arrival.
March and December are widely considered the best months to visit Taipei. March brings cherry blossoms at Yangmingshan National Park and mild temperatures, while December offers cool, dry weather and a festive atmosphere without the peak-season fare premiums. Avoid July and August if possible due to high heat, humidity, and typhoon risk.
Direct flights from Singapore to Taipei Taoyuan Airport take approximately 4 hours 30 minutes. Singapore Airlines and Scoot both operate this route, with Scoot typically offering the lower base fare. Compare timings and prices across both carriers on Laters.com to find the best combination of schedule and cost.
