EVA Air

Newer EVA Air Boeing 777-300ER aircraft, Elite Class, seated in 22D aisle from Taipei to San Francisco. Great seat comfort and spacing. Large AVOD screen and good amenities. Excellent service by flight staff and on-time performance.

The service was excellent and the food was always plentiful. The IFE was extensive and the crew was helpful and eager to please. We always fly EVA from Toronto to Manila with a stop in Taipei. Since the schedule is great and always on time. The toilets are spotless and fresh. We love the airport in Taipei.

This is a review of EVA Air new generation of Boeing 777-300ER. EVA has retained the 3x3x3 layout. Seat width is 18 inch and seat pitch 32 inch, but there are no IFE metal boxes underneath the seats, and seat style has been changed to enhance personal space. Recline and overall seat comfort are above average and make a 14-hour trip somewhat tolerable. Entertainment system (with touch-screen interface) is excellent with 11-inch screen, and each seat has in-seat power outlet.

An excellent Premium Economy seat on EVA Air Boeing 777-300ER, with lots of leg and knee room and enough width. Being six foot, I had no trouble with anyone putting their seat fully back in front of me so felt happy to put mine back. The TV screen in the seat back worked well. The Premium Economy cabin gave lots of room in the overhead lockers.

I flew on EEVA Air's newest 777 to Los Angeles. The TV screen is huge (Panasonic new EX3) entertainment system. The new seats has bigger space, and the seat is also softer. I hope EVA Air will install its newest economy class on all its Boeing 777 and A330 aircraft.

LHR BKK LHR Premium Economy 2nd April 2015 - 19th April 2015. I chose EVA Air premium economy because I wanted that little bit extra legroom and width of seat for a non stop 11 hours flight. I found the flight both comfortable and relaxing. I was able to fall asleep for at least 5 on both legs and the TV in-flight service was excellent. The only annoying part of the flight was the fact that the in-flight box is situated in the seat underneath in front and therefore prohibits foot movement to a certain extent. The meals were good and fresh. I paid around ÂGBP900 return for the experience which was great value. Eva are a good airline and the attendants are very pleasant and cheerful. However the flight outward was 2 hours late departing from LHR so some transfers to other flights in BKK were missed.

My husband and I fly to Bangkok at least 5 times a year and I would highly recommend EVA Air. Staff are extremely professional and do not disturb you unlike other airlines we have flown. Although the food isn't great again it is better than a lot of airlines. In economy I can sleep for 6-8 hours undisturbed however my husband can get 3-4 hours. Pretty good considering. If you want to get upgraded EVA Air isn't the company to go with. In the years we have flown with them not once have we been lucky!

On average a good seat bearing in mind the 11 hours flight to BKK. Though the pitch could be a bit bigger. A disadvantage of the aisle seats though is the placement of the boxes for the inflight entertainment system. In economy I prefer to sit as much in front of this class as possible.

EVA Air should check the aircraft air conditioning systems. My flight BR12 was just too hot! It made the flight very uncomfortable. Cabin crew service was superb though. But please adjust the cabin temp to be cooler. That was my 3rd flight with them that has the same problem.

Spent the extra money on Elite Class and was quite excited until I sat down and saw the oversized entertainment box right directly where my legs should have gone. This is for window seats row A. All the window seats (and in K too) seemed to have this same problem. As a result you either have to sit diagonally with both legs on the left side or do the splits with a leg on each side but the problem with this is that the left leg's calf muscle will have the corner of the foot rest jar up into the muscle causing pain after some time. Also when fully reclined it is difficult to get your feet under the seat in front of you. The concept is good but the execution is utterly terrible and I was very disappointed not to sleep for the 10-hour flight because of constantly trying to juggle one of the above two positions neither of which worked. Shame on the engineers here.
