The plane was made in Italy. Ferrari is also Italian, so it’s nicknamed the “Ferrari of the skies.”
In just a half hour, passengers can see the Old City Wall, Oluanpi Lighthouse, and other Pingtung highlights, as well as the endless expanse of blue ocean and coastline.

It’s a two-engine plane that can comfortably seat nine people. This type of comfy plane also has large windows, offering passengers different viewing angles of the southern coast.
This Italian-made “Ferrari of the skies” is the P2012, an official civil airplane with speeds of 359 kph and a range of 1,760 kilometers. Its large windows give passengers as eagle’s eye view of the scenery, paired with a tour guide’s introduction over a headset. It’s an entirely new way to experience the nation’s beautiful southern coast.
