Carmine6 Posted February 20, 2010 Share Posted February 20, 2010 EVA's Taipei to Thailand leg is usually a lot emptier than LAX to TPE, so it should help fill the Thailand flights. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mohinga Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 (edited) This is a service I could possibly use... I seem to get to Toronto once or twice every decade. I went to their website to see if I could find out about the flight... i.e. is it direct Toronto to Tapei? etc. But I seem to have a learning disability when it comes to airlines' websites. I just want to know the routes and shedules, but I am forced to enter dates of travel, etc... and only get a bit of information in return. Never an overview. Anyone know how I can find out things like stop-overs... if so, where? I gather Taipei is their hub, so it could be possible to fly to/from K.L. (rather than Bkk), but are there good connections with the proposed Toronto flight, or not? I haven't flown much in the past few years, and don't have a credit card... plus I'm getting old and cranky... so I guess I'll be forced to use a travel agent if I ever fly again. Just another disincentive for an already abundantly unpleasant mode of travel. Oops! stupid me... the OP's link was in two parts, and the first part (which I missed) had an article about the flight... seems it's direct Toronto to Taipei.

Just another disincentive for an already abundantly unpleasant mode of travel. No harm in using a travel agent. My wife and I still do. We only use the internet to double check that the fares he/she quotes to us are within the same ballpark. ... seems it's direct Toronto to Taipei. EVA Air only fly from Toronto three days a week. They do a refueling stop in Anchorage Alaska. That will be good for the people who want a break from the flight, if allowed off the aircraft. For my wife and I though that's a negative. We prefer Cathay Pacific where we can fly direct Toronto to Hong Kong without any stops. I don't know if they have it, but if EVA has their Elite Class on this flight, then that will be a big plus over Cathay. For just a few dollars more, over the regular economy class you get a business class seat. The same crappy meals as Air Canada and Cathay Pacific serve though.

searcher22 Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I normally fly Montreal-Vancouver-Taipei-Bangkok with EVA. The MTL-VANC leg is code-share with Air Canada. I don't think I'll be switching to Toronto-Taipei as it's a very long time to be sitting down. The flight from Montreal to Bangkok is broken down into neat little segments. Also, I would have to fly out of Toronto near midnight...don't like that. Only a significant discount would make me switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
