EVA AIR ECONOMY CLASS CUSTOMER SEAT REVIEW  - 1 February 2010 by Michele Scoggins (USA)

On a 20hr flight to BKK via Taipei I flew economy class. I was surprised how short the seat pitch was. Seating in a window seat proved difficult getting in/out of when two other passengers were sound asleep. With barely enough room for my carry on, it was reduced even more when in the recline position as the footrest took up additional space. The seat in front of me reclined is seat and almost cracked the top of my laptop. The connecting flight was no improvement as my leg room was confiscated by the IFE box located in the seat in front of me. On the return I paid the additional upgrade fee to sit in economy plus - well worth the extra bucks! The seats are 2x2 with good leg room and seat width.

I had a seat in Economy Class, and booked a seat online on the upper deck of EVA Air's 747-400 from TPE-YVR (I believe rows 70-89 are upper deck). On the upper deck of this particular plane, the formation is 3-3, and at 36” the seat pitch is actually 1-2” more than Economy on the lower deck (and much more than most other airlines in Economy)! My seat was 89K, a window seat in the last row of the upper deck. There is a wall behind me, but even so, I could incline back for about 5”, which is plenty to have a good rest. There were two windows, and on the upper deck there is a storage compartment next to all the window seats on which you can place your bag or other items, so you don’t need to put your things under the seat in front of you, providing more legroom.

BKK-LAX (via TPE) return Elite/Premium Economy. Worth paying a a little more for this - especially for a long flight and if you are tall like me (6'3"). The seat was wide and comfortable, and had plenty of leg room. The recline could be a bit better but not bad. Had own AVOD system with good films.

For a B777-300ER, I thought that EVA would have the decency to put in a footrest. IFE box are located underneath the seats, which makes it uncomfortable to stretch out. For those who plan on flying economy with EVA, I recommend spending a few extra dollars and get an Elite seat instead. A far cry from SIA B777-300er economy.

Economy deluxe cabin (elite class), which is worth the upgrade. The seat had superb leg space, were very soft and had a cradle design. When you recline your sliding seat you will notice that the recline is superb. The seat recline is not electronic, however is manually operated by pulling two buttons. The seats had an adjustable headrest. The PTV monitor is 8 inches and remote control is located on the middle armrest. There is SMS email service available for optional pay use, and there are electrical outlets located at the seat bottom. There is no foot rest however to replace it is a sofa recline leg rest which can be extended for certain body heights.

Good bang for your buck type of deal. The seat is pretty good for economy, although lacks some spacious qualities, its not that bad. I had an emergency exit/aisle seat so I was extremely happy with my seat leg room and mobility. However seeing the screen for movies was difficult and I was right next to the lavatories, so I had people walking past me the entire flight and I could hear every flush. Seat was confortable, with a leg rest, reclines well and has pretty good width.

We were very lucky at check-in to be put on the upper deck. The cabin feels so much more spacious than the lower deck economy seats and has much more leg room and storage space. BKK - LHR we were able to check in online so did this as soon as possible and again were allocated upper deck seats. These seats cannot be pre-allocated on the lower economy fares so get to check in as early as possible or check-in online if available.

Travelling as a couple on the 777-300ER means that there are only 3 rows at the back of double seats together and 1 row in the mid-cabin of double seats. These seats are very comfortable and we slept 9 hours out of 14 from TPE-LAX. If you are after seat pitch, then row 68 (the window seats on both sides) offer more legroom than others due to the curvature of the cabin and the spacing of the rows - although consequently the aisle seats in these blocks appear to have slightly reduced seatpitch - so access past a neighbour could be an issue. IFE good and easy to use.



Review:   21 March 2008

Aircraft:  Boeing 747-400

Name:  Lisa Neale    (UK)

PAX size:  Medium

Comfort Score :  8/10

Upper deck economy class 3x3 seating. Outward leg was in the exit row (85) and had more leg room then business class! Only 11 rows in the upper deck and all seats economy with more leg room then normal economy. Return leg (86) and had middle and window seats. Excellent leg room and little shelf next to window seat was very handy. Had a walk around the rest of the plane and the downstairs economy looked awful - no room and very squashed. Request for the upper deck on the long flights it's worth it!

From SIN to SFO via TPE. This is relevant to the second part of the flight.The seat pitch and the seat width was fine. But the legroom space was atrocious. It's almost like your shin is meant to be glued to the tray table and the footrest wasn't fully functional; it was a little inoperative. Overall, the seat comfort was poor; although the aircraft was relatively clean.

I found that the footrest did not extend up enough, which made my lower thighs carry my leg weight when footrest extended. Seat was a little hard, however, plenty of elbow and leg room.

Loads of space for those of us with long legs. 34" pitch makes it comfortable, and allows you to get sleep on the flight
