STARLUX handed him an entire A350-1000 as a canvas.<\/p><p>The result is one of two jets, AIRSORAYAMA GOLD and AIRSORAYAMA SILVER, finished in Sorayama\u2019s signature reflective metallics with fluid, liquid-chrome contours.

Photo: Wikimedia Commons<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">Why Phoenix?<\/h2><p>The choice of Phoenix is less random than it looks. STARLUX has quietly flown Taipei to Phoenix Sky Harbor since January, and the desert city has become one of the fastest-growing metros in the United States and an emerging gateway to Asia. Bringing the flagship art jet there first was, in effect, a thank-you and a flex.<\/p><p>Phoenix is one of five U.S. cities STARLUX now serves &mdash; alongside Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle and Ontario, California &mdash; all feeding its Taipei hub. The airline also launches its first European route, to Prague, on 1 August, stitching together a transpacific-to-Europe network built around comfort and, increasingly, spectacle.<\/p><h2 style=\"padding-top:22px\">Selling a feeling<\/h2><p>Underneath the art, this is a serious aeroplane: the A350-1000 is one of the most efficient long-haul twins flying, and STARLUX has fitted it with just four First Class suites and a lounge-like cabin gradient down to economy. Regular AIRSORAYAMA service to Phoenix, Tokyo and Prague begins on 1 October.<\/p><p>Plenty of airlines chase differentiation with lie-flat seats and mood lighting. STARLUX has decided the aircraft itself can be the headline act &mdash; and for once, the marketing might be right. It is hard to be indifferent to a chrome robot the size of a widebody landing on your runway.<\/p>\n<div style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;margin:24px 0\"><iframe class=\"skip-lazy\" data-no-lazy=\"1\" loading=\"eager\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mBByeom87HQ\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;border:0;border-radius:8px\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/div>\n<p style=\"font-size:13px;color:#777;font-style:italic;text-align:center;margin-top:-8px\">STARLUX\u2019s Sorayama-designed A350-1000, AIRSORAYAMA Silver.<\/p><p style=\"font-style:italic;font-size:14px;color:#555\">Sources: STARLUX Airlines (GlobeNewswire); Simple Flying; Upgraded Points; City of Phoenix.<\/p>\n<div style=\"background:#f0f4ff;border-left:4px solid #5C91FF;padding:16px 20px;margin:32px 0 8px;border-radius:0 8px 8px 0\"><p style=\"margin:0 0 8px;font-weight:600;color:#333\">Post correlati<\/p><p style=\"margin:4px 0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/philippine-airlines-787-a350-split-widebody-order-2026\/\">Philippine Airlines vuole entrambi: Boeing 787 e Airbus A350.<\/a><\/p><p style=\"margin:4px 0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/china-eastern-25-airbus-a330neo-order-2026\/\">China Eastern scommette 1.409 miliardi di dollari su Airbus.<\/a><\/p><p style=\"margin:4px 0\"><a href=\"https:\/\/migflug.com\/jetflights\/sas-airbus-widebody-order-a330neo-a350-2026\/\">SAS punta tutto sul futuro dei voli a lungo raggio con Airbus.<\/a><\/p><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most airlines paint their jets.
