Picked our seats when we purchased this flight (2 seats alone on the right) but were assigned two middle seats in the middle row at the gate. Very disappointing for a 10 hour+ flight, and what is the point of picking and paying for seats ahead of time when they just reassign us?
First international flight where the meals were not to my taste.
Overall, my experience with EVA Air was mixed. The highlight was that the airline clearly tried to provide a premium dining experience by offering the Michelin-starred Kanpai Classic beef yakiniku rice. However, in the limited space of an economy-class cabin, this meal felt overly oily and not very practical to eat. The sauce and grease made it easy to get one’s hands or tray table dirty, and after the meal many passengers may need to go to the lavatory simply to wash their hands. While the food itself may be high quality, the presentation and practicality did not seem well suited to an in-flight environment. Another disappointing part was the paid Wi-Fi service. I paid for the internet package, but the service did not work properly. What made the experience more frustrating was that passengers then had to spend additional time requesting a refund, and the refund process itself was slow and inconvenient. For an international airline, I think a malfunctioning paid service should be handled more efficiently. As for the seat, I feel EVA Air’s economy-class seats may be more comfortable for Asian passengers or people with smaller body frames, but they may not be as comfortable for taller or larger Western passengers on long-haul flights. The overall cabin environment also varied during the flight. Some passengers were not very mindful of noise, cleanliness, or shared cabin etiquette, which affected the comfort of the journey. I believe clearer reminders from the airline regarding cabin manners and hygiene could help improve the overall passenger experience. In short, EVA Air has some strong points, especially in trying to offer a premium Taiwanese-style service, but there are also areas that need improvement: more practical in-flight meals, a more reliable paid Wi-Fi system, faster refund handling, and better cabin management during long-haul flights.
Other than spotty internet, great servic, comfortable and smooth flight!
Crew was good. Sometimes food was eh. The spaghetti is gross for me. First time i got food, they didn’t provide utensils so i ate with my hands. I was hungry. They gave it to me 20 mins later when a crew member came by. I would fly with them again. Nobody is perfect
Eva airlines has very goin service, despite being low cost. Meals and fin, not amazing, restrooms always clean and staff polite and helpful
Pleasant crew. Very long flight, a bit uncomfortable at times being seated, but not too bad.
No ice for the drinks. Only gave a half a cup of your beverage. Not enough water. I got very dehydrated.
Polite hard working crew. No complaints really. Meals were not to my liking.
Everything was fantastic! The crew really went above and beyond to make it a great flight. I felt cared for with EVA.
Flight from Munich to O’Hare was great but it was on Lufthansa, a UA partner. It had more legroom than United, seat slid forward to make reclining more comfortable, they offered free drinks. United offered none of this. Oh and the food was superior to United’s which honestly, sucked.
Requested for warm or hot water because of throat pain, it was denied. The entertainment system was hung, requested the crew to turn it off, instead of turning it off they rebooted the device. It was stuck again, no one bothered to check.
Horrible on the chicago end. They change hates then there is a plane at the new gate so we can’t pull in. Then that plane has mechanical issue and needs to be pulled back to the gate but we can’t get to another new gate due the other plane being in the way. Horrible gate management which will cause many customers to miss connections.
Fantastic experience once again flying with United! There was great communication from the cockpit and one of the flight attendants went out of her way to get my two little kids some special treats which elevated our travel experience coming home.
The employees seemed impatient with their guests. It seemed like they were giving us orders, instead of easily assisting. Our flight was delayed waiting on a flight attendant. It was alright.
My easiest trip ever. Flights left on time, and came in a few minutes early. The flights weren’t full so it was very comfortable. Thank you United
Quinoa chocolate cookies are my favorite! Would be nice to have internet service like American
Better management of the boarding process. Is there any way you could forward all the window seats first? That's the Way Reno Air used to do it, and they had the fastest boarding in the industry!
Old plane, no amenities. Very abrupt landing. Unnecessarily long taxi time.
Legroom in Economy was fair to good. Seat was omay; I was hit in the shoulder twice by the cart as it was being whisked through the aisle. Overhead space was good for my carryon. Lighting environment was nice
