A small country in Asia owns 3 International Airlines, and also owns 3 international Container Sea Lines! Great! Taiwan not only has the world No. 1 Semiconductor Company- TSMC, but also has the top high -tech manufacturing companies in the world! Last year this country's per capital GDP has surpassed Eastern Asian countries' level! May God Speed on Formosa! No Invasion by CCP to this lovely Democratic Island!

I think Starlux is the only airline to have their chairman flying their inaugural flights. It showed how much he care about the airline and love aviation. IFE of JX A350 is awesome. The catering service was brilliant. This was the most special inaugural flight among the inaugural flights out there

A very detailed video for the historical event of Starlux. A job well done !

26:13, Wow, amazing view of Downtown San Francisco and the airport from 39 000 feet. I been to San Francisco International airport and downtown 2 years ago and it's nice and awesome.

25:33, Wow, amazing view of the golden gate bridge from 39 000 feet. I been to San Francisco 2 years ago and it's nice and awesome.

Let’s go celebrate Starlux and A 350 together 🥂🥂👍👍🌹🌹

You Taiwanese are so lucky to have such a nice direct flight route to LAX! Greetings from HK/US

Wonderful!

the meals look fantastic~

This is a very informative video, I feel I want to visit Taiwan from LA on Starlux

Nice job |🙂

The meal & drink selection are simply out of this world, Starlux will arrive the same status just like Singapore & Etihad Airway soon ! 💯

They will give the other two stiff competition. I've seen lots of reviews, I love that they make you feel like you're luxurious no matter the class. Very promising product. Looking forward to fly with them in the future

very impressive & beautiful... congratulations.... de Miami, florida

Good video

Congratulations to Starlux Airlines

Just a great video!!! I'm really excited that I will be flying home the same route in November as part of my Starlux Cebu to Taipei, Taipei to LAX and forwarding on to SFO on Alaska Airlines. Can't wait!!!

Amazing content and best wishes to Starlux

Great video with nice annotations on the flight. I'm not the least bit surprised the flight went so smoothly. CEO K.W. Chang is a driven boss who has high expectations of himself and his staff. Just read the Taipei-San Francisco route will begin before end of this year. The one thing I was surprised was there were no goodie bags given to the inaugural flight passengers. Many times Chinese airlines will hand out goody bags before boarding as a symbol of appreciation and good fortune on special flights.

The hot meals look really good and delicious👍🏾

This airline will be as good as EVA Air and China Airlines. I've flown on both. I hope I'll get to fly on this one, too. Greetings from Panama Canal.

Thanks for the quick upload.

7:39 If you have any complaints about the seat and service, you can directly speak to the company's founder as he was in the cockpit And the meals are provided by EVA Air

32:30 the In N' Out burger...one of the best spotting locations in the United States! I am very impressed with Starlux, I will definitely try them.

CEO C.K. Chang had a lot to do with EVA Air being the five-star airline it is today. Of course most if not all folks in Taiwan know abt what happened to him and his siblings that I'll refrain from going into here (Google it). I've no doubt he'll shape Starlux into another five-star airline.

Watch the Sam Chui KZread channel, he talked about the next cities that Starlux will open for flights.

what is your seat number? 50+? is it noisy?

Did y'all loop north then back down south? Just curious because the Bay Area was on your right side.

One Question: did the crew locked the dimmable windows during the flight or were you able to dim them individually by your own?

The disadvantage of some a350 /777x airlines is that some airlines like istarlux, in the futur will opt for dimmable windows that can easily be locked by the Flight attendants.
