StarLux Airlines has launched a new route between Taipei and Ho Chi Minh City, operating three round-trip flights a week.

On January 23 last year, the new airline launched its inaugural flights from Taoyuan to three destinations — Macau, Da Nang and Penang.

With its hub at Taiwan Taoyuan International Airport, StarLux Airlines will initially fly routes in Southeast Asia and Northeast Asia, gradually developing its trans-oceanic routes to North America. It is now operating Macau, Penang, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City, Tokyo and Osaka routes.
