Didn’t expect to be back in Japan so soon but my dad wanted to go to Hokkaido for the first time to eat all their amazing seafood and needed a tour guide. No free flights in business and JAL/ANA were ridiculously expensive out of Seattle. I’d been wanting to try Starlux and it wasn’t too bad to fly them to Japan, I did use points to get to LA. I’ll be flying a different airline home. I was very impressed by Starlux, helped a lot by a very light load on the way to Taiwan, only seven other passengers, so had great service and a very quiet cabin. Didn’t really need the door close to add more privacy. The row in front of me and two behind were empty. Hope this startup airline becomes successful and looking forward to them adding flights to/from Seattle in August.
Had a nice 4 hour layover in Starlux’s lounge opened a few months ago, not crowded unlike Eva since only two US flights and not many flights to other parts of Asia that early in the morning. The buffet was ok but the two out of three on demand dishes I got were good.
Beautiful accommodation. Maybe one day if I win the lottery lol. Wonderful airline food.
