I’m a lifelong aviation lover. I absolutely love flying and everything involving that experience. But most airlines are total dogshit. Most employees of airlines shouldn’t be working at a landfill sorting trash (they are that incompetent or unfriendly) But why is this? In America we have certain demographics who fly in tank tops, and basketball shorts with flip-flops. So the airlines are reflecting their customers.

They probably changed the policy on layover in Singapore after Taiwan opens up further. When I flew with them in Oct 2022 as Taiwan starts to open up, the crews were deadheading to Singapore to operate the return flight or deadheading on return to Taipei after operating the flight to Singapore. The deadheading crews would be resting in the centre aft cabin which were cordoned off with curtain.

I sat in these seats, and as a bigger person, I can tell you that one of the things I appreciate most is the amount of cushioning they have. On other airlines, my tush would start to feel sore approaching the 2-3 hr mark, but the Starlux economy seats are CHEF'S KISS. In business on the A330, I really loved the way the seat was designed, too, because you could nest a pillow on the seat's sloped edge and really fall asleep! Love it

The CEO is part of the Evergreen Family, they own also EVA Air, where he was chairman. After his father, Chang Yung-Fa, died, the siblings got into a big argument over the inheritance and this is how Starlux started. Evergreen is the biggest conglomerate in Taiwan with the main business interest being its Container Shipping business.

It’s always been my dream to fly with this airline when they started operating during the pandemic. So when Taiwan opened in October, I immediately chose Starlux when I decided to visit Taipei. And boy it’s probably among my best decisions! The experience was really great. Free wifi, lovely food!! And of course, the drinks 😍 and when I was returning to KL, they even served their local Ice cream (which can also compete with international brands)

For the San Fracisco - Taipei route, Starlux flys AIRBUS INDUSTRIE A350-900. The economy seats configuration is 3-3-3, as opposed to what is in this video albeit a different route so keep that in mind. The Economy Premium seats config is 2-4-2, at roughly twice the price. There you go.

Starlux is truly fantastic, on the same level as Qatar, Singapore and ANA in my experience, absolutely first tier no doubt. But with load factors like this, sadly they probably won’t be around for too long. I find their flights to be frequently under 70% full. 😢. Their earnings back up my prediction too, they constantly post huge quarterly losses each and every quarter. Fingers crossed they can turn it around, but it’s unlikely given their customer first strategy, without being a national airline with fundings from the government.
@ajorbista
@ajorbista Год назад
As far as I know the reason why Starlux exists was due to the inheritance dispute between the sons of the founder of EVA Air. However, things seem back to normal with the sons because the Starlux founder now is the head of Uni Air (the regional Carrier of Eva Air), while ensuring his continued commitment with Starlux. Apparently, Kuo Wei Chang was supposed to be the heir of Evergreen Group according to Chang Yung-Fa’s will. But family disputes happened and he was ousted out of Evergreen (the owners of EVA Air and that ship that blocked the Suez Canal) so he founded Starlux to fulfill the dreams and the will of his father. But it seems the family rivalry has somehow eased back as Kuo Wei Chang is back in Evergreen Group as the head of Uni Air.

Starlux stock shares doubled so it is an airline people trust to invest in. It will also improve competition with CI and EVA, the latter having become WAY to expensive. Next time we fly home to Taiwan from Vietnam, surely going to book a Starlux flight to give it a try.

By the way, is this really the best economy class in your opinion? Are they really better than Singapore Airlines or Emirates? Also, they are the cheapest airline for a one way ticket on Singapore-Taipei, even cheaper than Scoot.
