Mandarin Airlines receives first ATR 72-600

ATR has delivered the first of nine ATR 72-600s to Mandarin Airlines, the regional subsidiary of Taiwan’s flag carrier China Airlines. With the aircraft servicing its domestic routes Mandarin Airlines will benefit from the introduction of a market leading, versatile turboprop, allowing it to offer passengers a modern cabin with affordable prices. The ATR -600 series is a proven route opener, creating on average 100 new routes every year worldwide, and the aircraft will contribute to the expansion of regional connectivity across the island.
