STARLUX Airlines Adds Third US Route to Taipei
STARLUX Airlines, announced today it will begin new nonstop service this summer between Seattle and Taipei. STARLUX’s inaugural flight from Seattle is scheduled for Aug.16. The airline will initially offer three flights weekly with connections to destinations across Asia.
STARLUX partnered with Alaska Airlines almost a year ago, which means that STARLUX flights from the West Coast to Taipei can now be purchased directly at alaskaair.com, including the new Seattle flight. Mileage Plan members can earn and redeem miles on STARLUX flights.
STARLUX launched its inaugural transpacific service between Taipei and Los Angeles in April 2023. Then in December, STARLUX began service between Taipei and San Francisco. Los Angeles, San Francisco and Seattle are gateway airports for Alaska Airlines as well, allowing guests to have convenient connectivity with STARLUX flights.
The new Seattle–Taipei flights will operate on STARLUX’s next generation Airbus A350. That aircraft features four cabins—First (4 seats), business class (26 seats), premium economy (36 seats) and economy (240 seats)—giving passengers numerous options for the 6,000+ mile flight.
To enjoy an at-home experience in the air, the new flights provide exquisite dining including Taiwanese signature dishes and amenities prepared for all-class passengers. And to bring greater individuality to their air travel experience, passengers can pre-order meals online so they can enjoy the meal they want.
