Recent Traveller Feedback
Flew STARLUX Airlines from Taipei to Tokyo in economy class on the Saving fare and was happy with the 23 kg checked bag allowance plus the 7 kg carry on. The 22 x 14 x 9 inch cabin size is standard international, and my regular carry on roller fit without any issues at all.
Travelled business class with STARLUX from Taipei to Los Angeles and the baggage allowance was fantastic with two checked bags of up to 32 kg or 70 pounds each plus two cabin bags. It was perfect for a longer international trip with lots of work gear and gifts for family on both ends.
Really appreciated that STARLUX allows a separate personal item like a laptop bag in addition to the main cabin bag, even in economy class. I could keep my computer, headphones and travel documents with me while stowing the roller in the overhead bin, which made working on the flight very convenient.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much carry-on baggage does STARLUX Airlines allow in economy class?
Economy class passengers on STARLUX Airlines can bring one cabin bag weighing up to 7 kg with maximum dimensions of 56 x 36 x 23 cm, which equals 22 x 14 x 9 inches and is the standard international carry on size.
You can also bring one additional personal item such as a small handbag, laptop bag or briefcase in addition to the main cabin bag, which is standard for a premium full service airline.
Business class passengers are allowed two cabin bags instead of one, plus the same personal item allowance for extra flexibility on longer trips.
How many free checked bags do you get with STARLUX Airlines economy class?
The number of free checked bags on STARLUX Airlines economy class depends on your fare type, with Saving and Limited fares including one checked bag of up to 23 kg or 50 pounds on regional routes within Asia.
Basic and Full economy fares include two checked bags of 23 kg each, which gives you much more space for shopping or longer trips and is the same allowance as premium economy class.
Every checked bag must stay within 158 cm or 62 inches when you add length plus width plus height together, which is the standard linear limit used by most international airlines.
What is the baggage allowance for STARLUX Airlines business class?
Business class passengers on STARLUX Airlines receive two checked bags weighing up to 32 kg or 70 lb each, which is significantly more than economy class and very generous compared with other regional carriers.
You also get two cabin bags in business class instead of the single bag allowed in economy, plus a personal item, so you can bring a roller bag and a separate laptop or document bag into the cabin.
The size limit per checked bag remains the same at 158 cm or 62 inches linear, and business class passengers also enjoy priority baggage handling at most airports.
Does STARLUX Airlines have a premium economy class with extra baggage?
STARLUX Airlines does offer premium economy on certain aircraft and routes, and the checked baggage allowance is two bags of 23 kg each, which is the same as the Basic and Full fares in regular economy class.
The main benefits of premium economy are the wider seat, extra legroom, upgraded meal service and priority services rather than additional baggage compared with full fare economy.
Carry on allowance in premium economy is the same as regular economy with one cabin bag of 7 kg plus one personal item, so the cabin limits do not change between the two economy classes.
What are the official size and weight limits in inches and pounds on STARLUX Airlines?
STARLUX Airlines publishes its limits in both metric and imperial units, with carry on bags measured at 22 x 14 x 9 inches and a maximum weight of about 15.4 pounds or 7 kg per piece in economy class.
Checked bags in economy are limited to 50 pounds or 23 kg each, while business class bags can go up to 70 pounds or 32 kg each, and every checked bag must stay under 62 inches total linear measurement.
Having the imperial numbers directly from the airline is very useful for travelers from the United States or other countries who are used to measuring luggage in inches and pounds rather than centimeters and kilograms.
