Shandong Airlines plans to launch a new passenger service between Jinan and Taichung from July 23, 2010.

This will be the fourth route from Shandong to Taiwan following the launch of flights from Jinan, Qingdao, and Yantai to Taipei.

The airline has scheduled four flights a month, on Fridays, for this new service. It will depart Jinan at 8:00 and get to Taichung at 10:40. Return flights will leave at 11:40 from Taichung and arrive at Jinan at 14:25. This service will be operated using Boeing 737-700 aircraft.

Shandong Airlines launched its first Taiwan route on November 29, 2008 between Qingdao and Taipei. Currently Shandong Airlines operated seven roundtrip flights each week from Jinan, Qingdao and Yantai to Taoyuan International Airport in Taipei.
