Where EVA Air Flies

EVA Air's entire international network radiates from Taipei Taoyuan International Airport (TPE), a well-placed connecting point between North America and destinations across Southeast Asia. The airline has built a reputation for consistency on long trans-Pacific sectors, and Taipei's geography often makes for efficient connection times compared to routing through other Asian hubs.

Fleet & Onboard Experience

EVA's long-haul fleet is built around the Boeing 777 and Boeing 787 Dreamliner. The airline is also known for special-livery aircraft, including its long-running Hello Kitty-themed planes, alongside a Premium Laurel Class that sits between standard Economy and Business Class on many routes.
