Fleet
As of January 2013, the StarFlyer fleet consists of 7 Airbus A320-200 aircraft with an average age of 3.6 years, each being equipped with 144 and 150 passenger seats in an all-economy class cabin layout:
The first StarFlyer aircraft, City of Kitakyushu, arrived from Toulouse at the Tokyo International Airport on December 15, 2005. It was also the first aircraft to land at the New Kitakyushu Airport on February 8, 2006.
Although the A320 usually accommodates 180 passengers in one-class layout, StarFlyer's aircraft are fitted with only 144 seats for greater passenger legroom and comfort. The seat pitch is the largest of any economy class, at 36 in (910 mm). Each passenger has a personal LCD monitor offering in-flight television, as well as powerports for notebook computers. StarFlyer plans to offer in-flight Internet service in the future. The Star Flyer A320 fleet is leased from GECAS and AWAS.

Which I gaze on so fondly today,
Were to change by tomorrow, and fleet in my arms,
Like fairy-gifts fading away.”

sits a fleet of small black ships,

their spars like burned matchsticks.”
