Starting August 15, Taipei-based carrier STARLUX Airlines will offer a more luxurious option for travelers flying to see Taiwan’s tourist attractions or transiting to North America via Clark International Airport (CRK).
Starlux will operate an Airbus A321 neo on the flight from Taipei to Clark. The aircraft is configured in a two-class layout, with eight fully-flat business class seats in a 2-2 configuration and 180 seats in Economy Class 3-3 setup.
For the North American transit market, STARLUX Airlines provides greater convenience with significantly reduced travel time.
“STARLUX’s presence in CRK is eagerly anticipated by travelers to and from Taipei, most especially in these times when leisure and business travelers are seeking the most delightful experiences. Our new airport terminal provides a timely offer with new amenities and conveniences that suit their needs,” said Luzon International Premiere Airport Development (LIPAD) Corp. CEO Noel Manankil.
LIPAD, the consortium that operates CRK, has provided a new, sprawling terminal for CRK’s growing number of passengers who seek hassle-free travel and options to reach destinations with considerable ease.
The flight arrives in CRK at 9:45 AM and departs at 10:45 AM on Tuesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays. The Mondays, Wednesdays, and Thursdays flights arrive at 7:25 PM and depart at 8:25 PM. Travel time is approximately two hours.
STARLUX currently flies to 17 destinations, including Los Angeles, Tokyo, Osaka, Fukuoka, Okinawa, Sapporo, Sendai, Macau, Penang, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Singapore, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, Hanoi, Manila, and Cebu. The fleet also continues to grow, with a current count of 20 aircraft, including 13 A321neos, four A330neos, and three A350s. The fourth A350 is expected to be delivered by the end of the year.
With the addition of STARLUX Airlines, CRK now has 8 foreign and 5 Philippine-based airlines servicing 10 international and 10 local destinations.
