Flawless: Starlux Airlines A330neo Business Class

Good point to make how different a 2 hour flight in Asia is compared to the US. Such a shame that we can't replicate service and quality although US staff gets paid significantly more and in reality do so much less.

Thank you for the review, Ben. It's nice to see they can indeed get it right.

There's really no excuse for yelling at paying business passengers for using the forward lavatory or, as in your case, letting trash fill the cabin for hours on end.

I wonder if the local business routes simply get better crews? If so, might I suggest they shuffle the deck a bit to teach the lazy ones on the long-haul routes some basic manners?

Reviewing an airline departing from its hub is always the best way to see it at peak, as far as the catering is concerned.

How would you compare this seat to SQ on their 7810s and select A350s? From what I read, many find the seat narrow so I'm curious to hear your opinion as SQ uses their staggered version on similar routes. One drawback I find with these seats is the "shield" by the seats that are by the windows as it blocks the view. It's not as bad on this seat compared to SQ, TK.

Seems like a great hard and soft product for short-haul flights. Good job Starlux.

I remember being delighted with my Eva NRT-TPE business class flight on a 787 pre-Covid. I suspect this is a competitive market, so standards are very high.

I would guess that Starlux and Qatar are generous sponsors of this and other blogs.

Relative to local salaries I think working for a non US airline is much better..

So what are you saying? Your theory is nonsensical anyway.

This -> "The problem with taking flights within Asia is that they forever ruin you when you return to the United States. I mean, think of how this experience compares to taking a two hour flight in the United States." It's just night and day, and probably always will be.
