Need bereavement rate to Taiwan, quickly please
 
My friend and co-worker just learned her sister was found dead in her home in Taiwan. My friend needs to go to Taiwan in the next day or so, please tell me which airline is best for bereavement fares? She's flying from Austin, TX.

Thanks.

I replied in the Airlines forum. China Airlines (CI) has fares under $1,200 leaving Sunday.

Thanks for your help rkkwan. She will be flying China Airlines on Monday via LAX.

If she has a long layover or needs whatever at LAX, please let me know.

Also try NW, I heard they are quite sympathetic to family situations. Though it requires 2 stopovers. Your friend/colleague would probably need the details. My condolences.

Thank you very much London.

I apologize for not posting an update to this thread. We did find her a fare of $1,134 which she thought was quite reasonable.

Thanks to all Fodorites, you always come through for me.
