Starlux increases Taipei-Kuala Lumpur flights to daily service | Taiwan News | Oct. 5, 2026 15:07

Starlux Airlines has boosted its Taipei–Kuala Lumpur route to a daily service as it expands its Southeast Asia network. Starting Monday, the outbound flight departs Taipei at 11:15 a.m. and lands in Kuala Lumpur at 4:10 p.m., while the return departs at 5:20 p.m. and arrives in Taipei at 10:15 p.m. Starlux CEO Glenn Chai said strong demand drove the higher frequency and the use of a larger aircraft. The airline says Kuala Lumpur passengers can also connect via Taipei to its North American network, serving Los Angeles, San Francisco, Ontario, Seattle and Phoenix. The route will be flown by the Airbus A330neo.
