Long-Haul Routes Connecting via Taipei
STARLUX Airlines is based in Taipei, Taiwan, and flights from Japan connect via Taipei/Taoyuan. Launched in 2020, this relatively young carrier has earned a strong reputation for cabin design and service quality, and both the U.S. and Prague routes covered by this sale offer a Premium Economy cabin. Building in a longer connection to enjoy a stopover in Taipei is one of the perks of flying a connecting itinerary.
Eleven Departure Cities Across Japan
A key feature of this sale is the wide range of Japanese airports included. Eligible departure points are:
- Sapporo/Chitose
- Hakodate
- Sendai
- Tokyo/Narita
- Nagoya/Chubu
- Osaka/Kansai
- Kobe
- Fukuoka
- Kumamoto
- Okinawa/Naha
- Shimojishima
Beyond the Tokyo and Kansai areas, the list covers Hokkaido, Tohoku, Kyushu, Okinawa and even Shimojishima in Miyakojima. Travelers outside major metros don’t need to book a separate domestic ticket, so a single reservation carries them all the way to the U.S. West Coast or Europe — saving both hassle and money.
Destinations: Five U.S. Cities Plus Prague
The sale covers Los Angeles, Ontario, San Francisco, Seattle and Phoenix in the United States, plus the Czech capital of Prague — six destinations in total.
U.S. Routes
Los Angeles and San Francisco are classic West Coast gateways, Seattle is known for its nature and coffee culture, and Phoenix serves as a base for the Grand Canyon and Sedona. Ontario, located east of Los Angeles, is a convenient alternative for travelers heading toward Anaheim or Palm Springs.
Prague Route
At 189,000 yen and up from Narita, Prague is a compelling price point for a round trip to Europe. Beyond visitors drawn to the Old Town Square, Charles Bridge and Prague Castle, the city also works well as a launching point for a Central European tour taking in Vienna, Budapest or Dresden.
Points to Check Before Booking
- Taxes are extra: Listed fares include the fuel surcharge, but airport fees and other taxes are added on. Always confirm the total at checkout.
- Travel periods differ by destination: The overall travel period runs through March 24, 2027, but U.S. flights must be completed by December 29, 2026 — trips after the New Year are not eligible.
- Limited seats: Availability is restricted to booking classes “V/S/N” in Economy and “E” in Premium Economy, so popular dates and flights may sell out quickly.
- Review the fare rules: Discounted fares often carry different change and refund conditions and mileage accrual rates than standard fares.
Summary
The sale runs through August 31, 2026. If you’re considering a North America trip from late summer into winter, or a Central Europe journey in early 2027, it’s worth locking in your dates early. Details and bookings are available on the official site (https://www.traicy.com/link/JX).
