You should have showed up at the airport earlier so that you can go to the new Starlux Galactic lounge in Terminal 2 near the D gates (both Terminal 1 and 2 are connected airside). Their new lounge spanning two levels (main level and basement level) is much better and has shower rooms as well.
When did you take this trip? I recently booked a Starlux ticket on Alaska Miles and was able to login to the Starlux website to select my seat and even select my the main course for both meals on the flight (meal selection opens 21 days before departure Taiwan time). In fact, after booking on the Alaska Airlines website, they even had a link directly to Starlux's site to manage the booking.
I took it on March 20th, 2024. I booked the ticket in December 2023. I wasn't sure it had been fixed yet, but that's why I added the note. That's what I get for batch recording trips up to a year in advance. The final flight from that trip won't be airing till January 2025.
I flew Starlux business class in January 2024 to LAX to Singapore via Taipei. The food and service are good, but not great like Singapore Airlines. Their cabin temperature was set very warm, uncomfortable warm and dry for the LAX to Taiwan segment (and vice-versa). I asked numerous time to get the temperature lowered, but flight attendents in business class never lowered the temperature, making the segment flight miserable, even with all the business class amenities and features. Their new Starlux lounge in the Taipei airport is good, but not great like Singapore Airlines. I will avoid flying Starlux business classs again...I rather spend my money with another airlines.
