Back to Toronto on EVA Air, for a long 15 hours over the arctic. EVA's Economy Class is by far one of the best products for this journey,in my opinion beating out any North American carrier on a similar route. The crew was attentive and outgoing, with tons of amenities provided to passengers throughout the flight. Join me for the full experience!

Very organised and professional company! Recently flew LAX to MNL

[@annk387]

I flew EVA Air recently (May 2023). The check in was smooth and organized. Flights were all on schedule (as I did a connecting flight from MNL - TPE, and TPE - YYZ). Even their short-haul two-hour flight from Manila to Taipei had full meal service, and they also served wine on an economy class. I enjoyed every meal served, except for the seafood with tomato concasse. I'd say probably opt for the pork cutlet option. The bread was always served soft and warm which is very nice. The flight attendants, however, sounded quite sassy at times, but I think it's only because they are strict and professional in terms of safety and comfort as their main priorities during the flight, as all airlines' cabin crew should be. They are very helpful, nonetheless. The economy seat had more legroom than any other airline I have ever flown so far. The airline itself was very neat and clean. I can see why it's been awarded a 5-star airline. A great and pleasant flight experience above all.

I flew with EVA Air previously. Back in 2018, I found the flight to be pleasant as well! Thanks for this video.

[@TripReportaviation]

Brilliant trip report! I find the crew very professional that they stick a sticker to ask passengers who are sleeping if they wanted to have the meal that they have missed. None of the airlines I have flown with do that except EVA AIR

[@WillAviation]

Thanks for watching! I really enjoyed the flight, the crew were great!

[@borninhk1]

Singapore Airlines does this too

[@sdlock83]

​@@borninhk1Yup, I remember Singapore Airlines having the sticker system back in 1994 that says "No meal needed, please do not disturb."

[@jrfrancia1290]

Aseana does that too.

[@kuyaej4364]

Thanks for the upload! I really miss flying to Asia (been using Eva air the last few times) and this really made me nostalgic

Again, a great vlog, very informative, the meals looked really nice and proper cutlery makes such a difference.

Great and detailed report! Can’t wait till flight travel comes back to normal.

Same here! Thanks for watching!

[@Andy1076]

Eva has improved the cabin quite a bit since I last flew with them, they didn't have that ambience before. Food looks good though! Wonderful take off audio too. 🥰 September, things weren't too bad yet and we were all able to travel, wow those were the times huh?

[@jialingchu194]

Yeah! ^_^ Pandas also flight on Eva fm China to Taiwan!

Cool report! Thank you! I read EVA Air ranks among the best and safest airlines in the world! Too bad I’ve never had a chance to be on one of their flights. Hope I will one day.

we will be boarding that same exact plane model, travel route and even the schedule this coming September 9! bound to montreal though so will be transferring to Air Canada afterwhich, this vid made me more excited, hope to God everything will be just fine

Thanks for sharing!!

[@tonyo7324]

Nice video. I really like Eva Air. They are so well organized from Check in, Boarding , inside the, and deboarding. Catering is always good. Whichever class you are, the put a sticker on the back of your seat when you are sleeping and will really serve the meal once you are awake. Crew is always there anytime. Now they're back after Covid. See you again Eva Air.

[@philippoon8879]

Actually EVA has both 9 and 10 across on their 777s, 10 aircraft (the newest units) have the 10-across. Sad but it's the industry normal. I agree with the service standards, generally I find that EVA is far more consistent than what Cathay Pacific is offering, especially now with their shortfall in staff as well as aircraft (post-COVID).

[@MrVipulLal]

Great video. Comprehensive report.

[@WillAviation]

Thanks!

Love Eva Air went last week to Taipei!

@@WillAviation follow up question; how quick is the passport security in Taipeh Airport? I noticed that most if not all EVA Air has a very short layover (i.e. Taipeh to Cebu Phils. ).

[@janetp3389]

@@WillAviation Thank you so much!!

[@CWB309]

I fly to Philippines very often and Eva Air is by far my favorite Airline to fly with. The seats are comfortable, legroom is decent and the food is overall pretty good. Another reason I prefer eva is having a layover in Taipei and being able to use the showers they have there. That in itself can make a long haul flight that much more tolerable.

[@tikhang1808]

EVA is awesome!!! Flew EVA twice going to Laos from San Francisco... Food was delicious...

[@henryjoenguyen170]

i flew EVA Air back in June, 2023, from SFO-TPE, Premium Eco, B-16730, great service, great crew, nice food. Also to SGN and back to SFO via EVA Air, but flew on older cabin. Still great. I would pick EVA for my Asia trip. (ps: I think 1 of the flight attendant that served you in economy was also the one who served me on BR28 to SFO in PE)

[@davidv.2050]

I ❤️ flying EVA!

[@amyhoffmann6429]

Very informative. Glad my first trip with EVA is under a month.

[@WillAviation]

Enjoy!

[@ralphlambo9611]

Very informative content. I'll be taking the same flight (same time). This video would really help me a lot since it will be my first time and it gave me an idea on what to expect through out the whole flight. Thanks!! 👍👍👍

[@WillAviation]

Thanks! Enjoy!

[@russellmania9157]

Before the pandemic shutdown I was flying Eva Air Houston to Taipei to Philippines in premium economy between $1500 to $2000. Now they are asking $2400 and up for premium economy. Im flying Eva economy twice this year and again this week for around $1000 RT.

I’ll be flying eva tmrw!!!

I am really going to the EVA air

[@sSophisticateds]

Will be flying EVA Air overnight. Was worried they wouldn't provide pillows and blankets. Glad that wasn't so.

[@MatchaCocoaDog]

Wow great airline

[@Karimsama]

Dude there is a electrical plug! This video already worth the view and the like! This is goign to be a good trip to Taiwan!

[@jonasbrothersrockist]

I flew Eva air back in May 2014 from Seattle international airport to Taipei international airport when I first visited Cambodia.

[@shihlin1]

At 25:10, Next time you fly EVA Air, for the second meal before landing, I would recommend getting the Porridge selection. It really is a highlight from their flights that other airlines don't offer, probably as tasty if not tastier than the other selection. Generally a rule of thumb flying Asian carriers, it's a better bet ordering their local cuisine vs. the Western selection bc they do a much better job preparing the local dish.

[@WillAviation]

Thanks for the recommendation! Will give it a try :)

[@gohzilla9356]

I cannot agreed more! Nothing more refreshing than waking up having a warm bowl of porridge!

[@sdlock83]

What do you mean "porridge?" Do you mean the Chinese juk?

[@randomtravel4361]

I'm flying EVA Y-class in a few weeks, with 9-abreast and 10-abreast 77W mixed in. Let's see what difference it's going to be as I have wide shoulders, and every inch of width counts.

[@justinweng1513]

THANK YOU

[@gohzilla9356]

OMG! I MISSED Taoyuan airport and EVA AIR!! I was supposed to travel to Taiwan at this time but freaking Covid has to ruin my plan UGH!! D:

[@lunaangelj]

Does evaair provide shuttle busses from airport to a set destination in CA like it does inthe us in some states and airports?

[@luv2luvujc]

I have never heard of Eva Air until now. I am flying to Japan in 7 months with a stopover in Taiwan and the travel company I used booked my flight. I do look forward to this airline because it looks far better and comfortable than the airlines I've flown previously and they were shorter flights. Thank you for your review

[@adamdubignon8136]

After one unfortunate experience of 10 abreast econ on a 77W about 10 years ago it was enough to do me in for a lifetime and I have been lucky enough since then to fly about 50-60 times a year, about half on wide-body, but never repeat it. Takes some careful planning but still doable. Other options are out there - Long may it last!

[@scottprice4813]

This is a well run airline but 10 abreast in economy with a 17” width isn’t anything. Flew them in 2006 with 9 abreast and 18” width 33-34” pitch. Completely different experience ,

[@retro5588]

watched this like 10 times already lmao

[@cdn4767]

Like ANA and Cathay, these lots tends to provide good service for a non national carrier.

[@pumpkinalyxsa7476]

I always take Eva air and they always ask if we are sleeping would they wake us up for the meal or no

[@shihlin1]

Pre-Covid, right ? No one is wearing masks ! When was this flight ?

[@WillAviation]

Yes pre-COVID! May 2019!

[@hurmain38]

Hello is seat in economy class comfortable. Any advice.

[@norrismayabroguena8833]

Please dont get mw wrong. First time to have international flight.. Are the blanket, pillow, etc can be taken home? Thank you.

[@WillAviation]

Typically no! You have to leave them on the plane

[@TomStick91]

Q: What's the difference between 'Economy Basic' and 'Economy Standard'?

[@WillAviation]

On EVA Air long haul routes, Basic doesn’t include seat selection but Standard does. In Standard you also earn more frequent flyer miles and you can upgrade using miles. Hope that helps!

[@cdnsilverdaddy]

miss Taiwan already and just back last week!

[@user-ww1zr2qt2h]

London to Bangkok. 3x4x3 seating now. I will never use them again.

So how would it be for a 17 hour flight?

[@melmartinez9589]

How much is the extra luggage for international flight?

[@TouChantha]

Was this your journey before the pandemic?

[@WillAviation]

Yes!

[@nikolauswolff5791]

What speaks for EVA is the fact that they have 9 seats in a row in eco. Even 5 star airline Qatar has 10 ( 3-4-3 ). It doesn't matter that much but you have at least a bit more space on a very long haul flight like this.

[@maninthecab]

Unfortunately the Bean Counters have triumphed at EVA and their more recent B777-300ERs are 3-4-3 , I believe that they are also in the process of changing their older aircraft to this configuration.

[@kailesalas4595]

Were you bored during the long flight

EVA Air is a Taiwanese privately owned airline which belong to Evergreen Group. Starlux airlines is also a privately owned airlines but China Airlines, the flag carrier of Taiwan, has a major shareholder with Taiwanese Government.

Warning!!! If you plan on booking a flight with EVA from the U.S. to Southeast Asia, don't do it. You will be waisting your time. Over the past year, I have booked two flights on EVA Air to Thailand, with stops in Taipei, Taiwan.............. and both were cancelled??? I am assuming that they are not busy enough to fill the plane, so they just cancel the flight and leave travelers hanging.

[@KevinCao2011]

You are saying like other airlines will not cancel their flights, only EVA does. If they cancel your flight, you get the money back without penalty or they re-schedule you to another day. I have flown EVA and everything is fine, They are on time and provide good services.

[@russellmania9157]

@@KevinCao2011 That comment is 10 months old and he is correct. Eva cancelled my flights at least 3 times but they were still selling tickets. Why sell tickets if they were cancelling flights, is his point at that time. Im flying Eva Aug 4th 2022.

[@KevinCao2011]

@@russellmania9157 because of the Covid situation, A lot of airlines cancel their flights and re-do their frequency.

My point is you cannot just boycott an airline because they cancel their flights during the crazy situation of Covid.

As we disembarked, we were separated by connecting flights and were given colored stickers to wear. We were escorted all the way thru transfer security and to a holding area and we were told to wait there til 30 mins before our flight was to depart. An Eva air employee escorted us to our gate, and we boarded the plane to the Philippines. We are all fully vaccinated with booster and wearing mask. Taiwan doesn't give a damn hahaha!! But return flight Sept 1 all those restrictions were dropped, and it was back to normal going thru transit.
