I try 1st time with the help of calkel for booking ticket, it's work well. The HSR system is very good similar to their mrt system. Aunty can pull luggage not ah ma. HSR disallow standing but I have seen those book with free seating type stand with without seat, but only few can stand. If you see a lot of ppl waiting, can take next train. Next train is only 5mins away.

HSR where got mafan, got lift mah. Airport mrt/bus to Taoyuan HSR (45mins )reach Taichung HSR, then taxi to Taichung hotel.
Unless got bus to Taichung hotel.

Take bus only need to bring bags up to the bus (from airport) and from bus, bring bags down when arrived at Taichung. Isn't this a lot less mafan than your take metro/bus to taoyuan hsr up down one time, reach taichung, up down another time and so forth?
