STARLUX’s first intercontinental route between Los Angeles and Taipei, which launched April 26, has increased from five flights a week to daily.
In addition, travelers flying on these flights are able to experience the airline’s new, unique “Home-in-the-Air” amenities, a special series of co-branded amenity kits exclusively designed by Italian luxury brands FPM and Bric’s Milano, along with Samsonite RED. Starting this month, this new route also features a variety of sports themed amenities—LA Dodgers-themed amenities on the LAX-TPE route, and LA Clippers-themed amenities on the TPE-LAX route.
For all Asian routes, STARLUX also announced the launch of Spider-Verse-themed flights in collaboration with Sony Pictures Animation’s film, Spider-ManTM: Across the Spider-Verse, which just hit theaters June 2. The “Travel Like a Superhero” campaign, which runs through August, will feature Spider-Verse goodies on board in all classes.
“With rising demand, the increased frequency of our LAX-TPE route will allow passengers to travel comfortably and conveniently to and from major cities in North America and Asia,” said STARLUX CEO Glenn Chai. “And our exclusive amenities from luxury brands, as well as our unique Dodgers and Clippers themed amenities align with STARLUX’s mission to make flying a truly memorable and luxurious experience.”
Long-haul Route “Home-in-the-Air” Amenities
The amenity kits provided on STARLUX long-haul flights are intended to make life at 38,000 feet a most pleasant and positive experience. Each amenity kit is designed to enhance the flying experience with all the comforts of home. The amenity kits include:
- First Class: Travelers flying in First Class will find an amenity kit co-branded with FPM—Fabbrica Pelletterie Milano. The kit’s upright flip-up design combines a classic leather handle and the signature chic and straightforward appearance for which FPM is known. It includes “The Ritual of Jing” series of cosmetics from Netherlands fragrance brand Rituals. Guests also have a custom-designed blanket co-branded by century-old Italian luxury wool brand Loro Piana, which uses 100% Loro Piana Zelander fabric and Punto Cavallo piping stitching, skin-soft pajamas, and Sony’s top-of-the-line noise-canceling WH-1000XM5 wireless headset.
- Business Class: Business Class passengers will be greeted with amenity kits designed to look like the classic Bric’s suitcase. The kit includes products from French skincare brand Huygens to help relieve the stress of long-distance travel using natural essential oils which promote deep sleep. They will also have a double-sided blanket made of 100% GRS-certified polyester featuring a short gray plush that feels gentle against the skin and skin-soft pajamas.
- Premium Economy: Customers in Premium Economy will have earth-toned Samsonite RED series amenity kits. The kits will include Swedish beauty brand IDUN Minerals—which uses 100% plant-based and environmentally friendly materials—provide a light and comfortable high-altitude experience. Premium Economy travelers will also find special double-sided blankets.
- Economy Class: Travelers in Economy Class will be able to enjoy eco-friendly amenity kits made by STARLUX Airlines and decorated with Taiwanese Aboriginal totems. The kits will contain essential grooming accessories for the journey.
