Tigerair Taiwan is ramping up its recruitment efforts as part of a broader plan to expand its fleet and services. The Tigerair Taiwan hiring drive focuses on adding both commercial pilots and airport ground staff. This expansion comes in response to a steady rise in passenger traffic and the airline’s fleet renewal program. To attract top talent, the airline is offering competitive starting salaries. Pilots will earn NT$120,000 per month, which is around US$4,000. Ground staff will receive NT$34,000 each month. These pay packages reflect the company’s push to stay competitive and build a stronger operational team.
The Tigerair Taiwan hiring drive aims to fill about 30 ground crew positions. All roles will be based at Taoyuan International Airport. Candidates must have a university degree and a minimum TOEIC English test score of 550. Applicants who can speak conversational Japanese or Korean will have an added advantage during selection. Newly hired ground crew will be responsible for check-in services, boarding gate operations, and customer support. They will also assist in supporting ground operations for other airlines operating at the airport. The company plans to start training programs for new staff in phases later this year.
In addition to ground staff, the airline is launching a pilot recruitment phase. Applicants must be Taiwanese nationals with a college degree. They must also hold a valid commercial pilot license issued by the U.S. FAA, Taiwan’s Civil Aviation Administration, or the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). A minimum of 250 hours of flight time is required. Pilot candidates must also submit an English proficiency certificate issued within the past two years. Those who meet all qualifications will enter the recruitment process later this year. The company expects the new pilots to begin flying duties early next year.
The Tigerair Taiwan hiring drive reflects the airline’s strong focus on scaling operations while maintaining service quality. With rising travel demand, the company is investing in a skilled workforce to support future growth. By offering strong salaries and setting high qualification standards, Tigerair Taiwan is preparing for the next chapter in its expansion. The airline’s ongoing hiring campaign marks a bold step forward in building a stronger, more capable team.
