UA837 NRT1730 – 2100KHH 738 D
UA838 KHH1025 – 1515NRT 738 D

This service marks the return of US carrier serving Kaohsiung in Southern Taiwan, when Northwest Airlines discontinued this route in June 2003. When including Continental Airlines, this indirectly marks the return of United service to Kaohsiung, as Continental Micronesia served Kaohsiung from October 1993 to April 1998 with Boeing 727 aircraft between Guam and Kaohsiung. By late-1995, service consolidated to Guam – Kaohsiung – Taipei and Guam – Taipei – Kaohsiung routing.
