Korean airlines don’t often compete this aggressively on the Taipei–Jeju route. During this clearance sale, Easy Star Air dropped to NT$3,636 round trip — and T’way Air followed at NT$4,840 including 15KG checked baggage. Both deals were time-limited, but the pricing patterns repeat.

Honest caveat: “Korean Airline Clearance Sale” promo fares like NT$3,636 are real but tightly constrained — limited dates, specific class, often non-refundable. The headline is the right hook to grab attention; the math you should run is “what’s the all-in cost (taxes + fees + baggage) and does the available date window actually fit your trip?” For some travelers this is the cheapest Jeju option in years; for others the constraints make Korean Air or Asiana on flexible dates the better deal at NT$5,500-7,000.
🔥 Ticket Highlights
- Easy Star Air: NT$3,636 round trip (limited departure dates — grab it fast)
- T’way Air: NT$4,840 including 15KG checked baggage
📅 Travel Dates
The Korean Airline clearance fare mistake I made on a 2024 Jeju attempt: I’d seen a similar Korean Air clearance at NT$3,800 and booked immediately for a “perfect winter trip” — only to discover at checkout that the only available dates were Tue-Thu travel (no weekend), and my company’s Lunar New Year leave was locked to Friday-Sunday. I cancelled, lost the NT$1,200 cancellation fee, and ended up paying NT$6,400 on EVA the following week. The fix I now apply: before clicking “book” on any clearance fare, screenshot the date constraints, the cancellation policy, and the baggage allowance — verify all three match your actual trip parameters before committing.
- Easy Star Air:
- Outbound: October 22 or 23
- Return: October 29 or 30
(Very limited — a rare find if you can make the dates work)
- T’way Air:
- NT$4,840–NT$5,000-range fares available through end of December, with 15KG checked baggage included. More flexible dates and better availability.

Jeju Island flight prices have been running high recently, so this Korean airline clearance sale was a genuine opportunity. If you have flexibility before year-end, either deal was worth taking seriously.

⚠️ Who shouldn’t grab this Korean Airline clearance fare
1. Travelers locked to weekend or holiday departure dates. Most “clearance” fares avoid peak demand windows (weekends, holidays, school breaks). The NT$3,636 deal almost certainly excludes Friday-Sunday departures and Korean public holidays. If your dates are locked to Sat-Mon, a flexible-date deal won’t apply. Better fit: Korean Air or Asiana scheduled fares at NT$5,500-7,000 with weekend availability.
2. Travelers needing 23kg+ checked baggage on a budget tier. Clearance economy fares often include only 15kg checked. Adding 8kg via airline website costs roughly NT$1,500-2,000 — at that point the all-in price is competitive with full-tier Korean Air economy. Better fit: book Korean Air full economy with 23kg included, comparable all-in cost.
3. Travelers who’d lose money on cancellation if dates change. Clearance fares are typically non-refundable / non-changeable. If your trip dates have any uncertainty (work flexibility, family obligations), the cancellation cost can erase the entire saving. Better fit: pay NT$1,000-2,000 more for a refundable / changeable fare class — for a 5-night Jeju trip the flexibility is worth the premium.
