Starlux Status Match and Routes

Taiwan’s new full service carrier STARLUX Airlines, a direct competitor of China Airlines and EVA Air, is now offering Status Match with a validity of 4 years. With zero commitments required, it is no brainer to do your Status Match, even if you have no plans to fly with them right now (by the time you need it, you may probably forgotten about this Status Match).

A Quick Introduction to Starlux Service

Similar to its direct competitor, Starlux is targeting at the upmarket. With 10 A321neos and 17 A350 on order, Starlux is now venturing into the regional market before reaching out to the longer haul sector.

Operating Routes:

Flights to Macau, Da Nang and Penang will begin on 23rd January, operated by 3 A321neo. Tickets are already on sale. A round-trip flight between TPE-PEN was (is) priced less than $1000.

I believe these seats need no introduction, as they are used by many airlines as well. However, if you intend to try their Business Class product, these might interest you:

-Complimentary Wifi
-Complimentary meal (of course) and pre-flight meal orders.
-Checked baggage of 40kg
