Travel Advisory

【North America】 

【Europe】

Due to the lack of manpower in European and American airports, resulting in a large amount of baggage being stranded, please put identification tags or labels with addresses and phone numbers on your baggage. 

These will enable us to locate your baggage if it is lost.

If passengers' journeys include the connecting flights operating by Lufthansa/ Austrian Airlines on the same ticket, passengers can get their boarding passes for all flights and have the baggage tagged to the final destination; however, whether passengers need to claim their luggage at the connecting airport, depends on the regulations of each airport.

Remarks: According to regulation from IATA, if passenger’s trip is involved two or more airlines and destinations, the itineraries have to be listed on the same ticket or conjunction tickets. In case passengers hold two or more “Separate Tickets” for travelling, it means there are two or more “Condition of Contacts” on the trip, the origin station will not tag-through to the final destination, passengers have to pick up the baggage and re-check to the final destination at the transfer station.

To avoid congestion at the airport during the summer vacation (July/August), passengers flying to Taiwan from Europe (AMS/FRA/LHR) are advised to arrive at the airport three and a half hours before departure for check-in and customs formalities.
