Rail travel offers direct station-to-station access into central Kaohsiung and avoids airport transfers required for flights. Buses provide lower fares but longer door-to-door travel times and multiple stops; flights have shorter airborne times but add significant transfer and check-in times to reach city centers. For most trips between Huwei and Kaohsiung, trains balance travel time and central-city access better than buses or planes.
