sir_clumsy Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 Trying to book a rt on Eva BKK/LAX/BKK. No matter what dates or class of service I pick I get the following message: "Sorry! The flights you chose is not provided now. Please select alternative flights again. Thank you!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_Pat_Pong Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 It sounds as though that particular flight is now permanently cancelled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Totster Posted January 4, 2006 Share Posted January 4, 2006 (edited) I would say the best thing to do would be to call EVA or your local travel agent to confirm. totster Edited January 4, 2006 by Totster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sir_clumsy Posted January 6, 2006 Author Share Posted January 6, 2006 (edited) It sounds as though that particular flight is now permanently cancelled. Nope, flights are available via Travelocity and shown in EVA's online schedule, it's just that you can't book online but get the error message I cited above. Anyone else booked a flight online at EVA's web site in the last few days? Edited January 6, 2006 by sir_clumsy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 I just plugged in Feb 10 and return Feb 26 on BKK/LAX/BKK economy and flights came up. My first try on an earlier February departure date was full outbound. I went to the confirm page with full itinerary and price details so all appears ok. This was using http://www.evaair.com/html/b2c/english/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was using http://www.evaair.com/html/b2c/english/ Interesting, when I plugged in your dates I got the same thing: available seats. When I tried some January dates, I get full flights. But when I do BKK/LAX/BKK for April/May I get the strange error message. Can you try outbound April 20 returning May 16? Travelocity indicates availability for those dates, but the EVA site says: "Sorry! The flights you chose is not provided now. Please select alternative flights again. Thank you!"

Guest endure Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 Isn't April the time when airlines update their timetables? Maybe EVA know something that Travelocity don't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 There are no flights to North American or Europe using May 2/May26 dates so appears they are making a schedule change. I just happen to have checked flights to SFO for that month a week or two ago and they were displayed ok so it is something that has just occurred - the flights were there before. I have always received better price using local travel agent here in Bangkok (Bangkok Post advertiser) for EVA flights myself. About 5,000 baht cheaper for deluxe if I recall correctly.

About 5,000 baht cheaper for deluxe if I recall correctly. Back in December, I tried pricing out flights for multiple dates in May and got the strange error mesage. I assumed it was just too early to book those, but guess it's something more than that. Now it looks like LAX/BKK/LAX is working fine, but flights from BKK give the error messge, even for some April dates. Looks like software issue unless they're doing schedule changes on the fly or something. Prices and schedules to/from LAX seem to be as they were before, but can't speak for other destinations.

sir_clumsy Posted January 7, 2006 Author Share Posted January 7, 2006 Travel agent was able to make a reservation for BKK/LAX/BKK in April, but unable to quote a price. Current Eva prices are valid through March 15th. Prices for travel ex-BKK after that date have yet to be established by Eva. Seems crazy to discourage travelers who want to make an advance purchase on line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
