Taipei-based carrier Starlux Airlines now flies daily between San Francisco and Taipei, up from three times weekly, the airline announced Wednesday. Starlux launched the route on Dec. 16 and has increased it “amid high demand” and to “underscore the airline’s commitment to expanding in the U.S. market.”
The flights are operated with Airbus A350 aircraft with four first-class seats, 26 business-class seats, 36 seats in premium economy and 240 economy seats.
Starlux in December was added to the TSA PreCheck program, and after it launched its inaugural service to Los Angeles last April, the carrier partnered with Alaska Airlines on an interline agreement. In addition, Starlux partnered with the carrier on Alaska’s Mileage Plan loyalty program.
