STARLUX, Taiwan’s luxury airline has inaugurated its third destination in the Philippines with its new daily service between Taipei and Clark. 

This service is strategically timed to cater to North American travelers who can now easily fly between Los Angeles and the northern Philippine city of Clark though its hub in Taipei. STARLUX currently serves Cebu and Manila in the Philippines.

Commenting on this route launch was Glenn Chai, STARLUX’s Chief Executive Officer:

“Today marks a significant milestone as we expand our service from Clark to Taipei, a route we expect will increase our competitiveness in the North American market by significantly reducing travel time for passengers heading to the northern Philippines for family, leisure, or business.”

“Clark has tremendous business and tourism potential. Formerly the largest U.S. military base in Asia, Clark offers a mix of fascinating history, a fast-growing economic center, breathtaking natural landscapes, and vibrant cultural experiences that will leave a lasting impression on every traveler who visits.”

With an established presence in the Philippines featuring two daily flights, STARLUX is poised to further enhance its offering by adding this additional daily flight. 

This new daily service will be operated by one of STARLUX’s Airbus A321neo aircraft, configured in a two class layout with eight seats in business class and 180 seats in economy class.
