C.K.S. Taipeh Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport (TPE) ... 台灣桃園國際機場 or 臺灣桃園國際機場; Tongyong Pinyin: Táiwan Táoyuán Gúojì Jichǎng, Pinyin: Táiwān Táoyuán Gúojì Jīchǎng), formerly Chiang Kai-shek International Airport (Traditional Chinese: 中正國際機場; Tongyong Pinyin: Jhongjhèng Gúojì Jichǎng; Pinyin: Zhōngzhèng Gúojì Jīchǎng), also known simply as Taoyuan Airport or C.K.S. Airport, is an international airport located in Taoyuan County, Taiwan, Republic of China. It is the one of the three international airports in Taiwan, and by far the busiest international air entry point. It is the home base for China Airlines and EVA Air, which both operate a major hub at this airport. Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport is one of two airports that serve northern Taiwan, including Taipei. The other is Taipei Songshan Airport located within the Taipei City limits, which serves only domestic flights and, rarely, some chartered international flights. Taipei Songshan Airport formerly served Taipei as its international airport before the opening of Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport, then known as Chiang Kai-shek International Airport, in 1979. The other two international airports in Taiwan are Kaohsiung International Airport (Hsiaogang Airport) and Taichung International Airport.
