My ticket was with EVA Airlines, but Asiana Airlines was the ground crew for EVA Airlines. Me and my family member finally received our boarding passes after waiting to check-in, which took over 30 minutes. I had never done a tax refund before, so I crossed immigration without going to customs to receive a stamp for my tax refund. When I went to the tax kiosk on the other side of the immigration gate, NICE Tax Refund asked me to talk to an airline staff member. I could not find any airline staff member, so I went to the Information Desk. The woman at the Information Desk told me and showed me a sign that read that I needed an airline staff member to accompany me to cross immigration again. The woman at the Information Desk phoned EVA Airlines and Asiana Airlines. I also phoned, but there was no answer. There was still 80 minutes before my flight would leave. I waited for 45 minutes. I spoke to Information, not one time, but two times and the woman assured me that this situation happens often and it is nothing to worry about as the airport is small and once the airline staff arrives, it would only take 10 minutes to go get the stamp and I would be able to make my flight. Then, 35 minutes before my flight was scheduled to leave an Asiana Airline employee, accompanied by the woman from the Information Desk came. Asiana asked me to confirm whether I wanted the customs declaration stamp. I answered yes. Then, she said she would like to state that I should take full responsibility if I could not make my flight. She asked whether I wanted her to proceed to contact a staff member to take me to get the stamp. This was very suspicious as there was still 35 minutes remaining until the flight took off. I directly said to her that the question was very strange, but as there was enough time remaining, I did not see a problem and wanted a staff member to accompany me to get the stamp. She went away and came back 5 minutes later and asked me whether I had the item I wanted to declare on me and how many people were traveling with me. I told her I had the item with me and I was here with a family member. She then went away again for another 5 minutes. When she came back she asked whether all members would not be traveling as well. I stated that I am not sure why me or my family member should not board the airplane. At this point, it became apparent that she was not helpful, so I tried to talk to other airline staff. I also talked to a woman wearing a reflective safety vest, who was organizing the gate bollards for boarding and she said she would take me after boarding. When I asked, how I would board the plane, she then said, you will not be able to. I then talked to a man, who spoke Mandarin and appeared to work for EVA Airlines. He told me it was my fault and not his and tried to re-direct me to another person. He was not busy at all. At this point, it became apparent that, Asiana Airlines and EVA Airlines, were more interested in delaying and preventing me from boarding the airplane. In the time the airline staff wasted arguing with me, they could have just brought me to receive the stamp. It seemed apparent that I was not going to receive the stamp or the tax refund, so I stepped into the boarding queue line. Again, the airline staff, the woman in the reflective safety vest asked me to confirm that I would not be getting on the airplane. I was already boarding! There was written signage of the procedure at your airport’s Information Desk. Then, I was passed to multiple airline staff that were not willing to assist accordingly. There was no one at the customs declaration counter and no one else from the airport to assist me. EVA and Asiana Airlines both avoided responsibility and delayed the procedure. They were rude and indirect about the situation with every attempt to prevent me from boarding. Deterring foreigners to depart from a foreign country over tax refund issues is unlawful.
The crew very accommodating and food too is good. Keep up the good work
The crews are very efficient. Other airlines should learn from them when it comes to boarding and departing from the airplane. They also display efficiency in serving meals. They don't keep the aisles blocked for hours like some other airlines. The food is poor. Generally the food was unrecognizable and poorly prepared. The only thing that made it better than US flag carriers is that there was a fresh fruit bowl with each meal.
Very good service and food. Crew was professional and helpful. Cabin and restrooms were kept clean

EVA! What is going on with your food!?!? Pre pandemic I used to go to Taiwan at least twice a year and always flew EVA — the food was consistently tasty for airplane food. Post pandemic, it’s not great at all. Step it up!
Flight Attendants could have been nicer and food portions could be bigger.
Great experience, comfort and food is delicious. Always great service and one time
The food from Los Angeles to Taipei made me throw up. The flight is also not comfort. But the staffs are very friendly and nice.
Flight staff were very courteous and efficient. Aircraft (seats, lavatories, etc) was kept clean and replenished
The boarding process was efficient and quick. The seats were comfortable. The food was good. The service was excellent. We had a lovely flight from Seattle on Korean air
Flight crew was fantastic. The aircraft was meticulously cleaned at all times. The crew was continuously checking to see if the passengers were ok.
They were trying to get people to check luggage because the over head compartments were full but when we boarded there were lots of empty places that people could have put the luggage.
It was good, I liked the self-serve snacks but it was a little difficult to get the alcohol, which is understandable since I wouldn't want kids sneaking it.
Friendly flight attendants and gate agents. Very clean plane and food was good!
I was unable to select decent seats, and so I was stuck in the middle seat because it was selected for me
There was a lot of partial tv shows but not enough to last the flight. The food was incredible! The crew were so helpful and patient. Lots more space than what I usually get on an international flight. Very comfortable!
This flight was a superior flight in all regards. Extremely pleasant experience.
Stingy on the drinks - 15 hour direct flight and could barely get attention for some water
Not many people, so you can lay down on two seats
The staff were so friendly and accommodating. The food was great. Lots of movies to choose from as well as tv shows. Highly recommend.
Leg room wasn't that great. Other than that it was a good flight
A lot of things Never flying with this airline again Had an emergency landing
Seats in the absolute back row of the plane even though we booked ages ago :( Crew was awesome though
I was only given 2 meals, and my screen showed that there were 3 meals. Second meal was 1-2 hours late according to the screen.
Just want to do a little more clean up so does not smell like urine.
Paid a premium a have a shorter transit time in Hong Kong, but Cathay pacific rebooked me and ended up waiting for 10 hrs in Hong Hong airport.
Entertainment for kids was good. Good was terrible, needs lots of work.
As before, my only problem was not being able to download my boarding passes prior to arrival at the airport. Everything else was perfect.
If I had blood clots, that window seat would've killed me for certain.
Excellent flight. Smooth, efficient boarding. Quick flight. Arrived early at STL.
Not the fault of United—weather, reroute around weather, time sitting on tarmac, arrived couple hours late, too late for train into city necessitating a much pricier cab but weather…can’t be helped.
I will never book a flight through Cheap fare. They booked me from Portland Main . And would not give me a refund, so I bought 2 tickets one for 299. From Portland Main to ORD. Then I had to buy a ticket from Oregon PDX to ORD that was another 440. So Just so you know they even told me it was there fault but no refund. Bad bussniess. I did inform United but they said they couldn't help me due to the fact I booked through Cheap Tickets. Never again. And I'm spreding the word. I let everyone know at my 50th class reunion
The flight attendants were rude. Seemed like they didn’t want to be there. Except for one girl that was really nice. Seats are sooooo uncomfortable. They give you a piece of paper and a thin cushion for a pillow and blanket that does nothing. Airlines have gone way downhill, especially United international flights. Food was disguting. Definitely flying ANA next time.
Crew and customer service were excellent. This flight also had plenty of leg room and seat mounted screens for entertainment. A very pleasant flight all around!
It would have been better if the crew has supported my husband's reasons for needing to keep the space clear around his feet, rather than insisting that he put his knapsack in that space.
Subject: Formal Complaint: Discriminatory and Unprofessional Conduct – Request for Immediate Action & Compensation Dear [Airline Customer Relations Team], I am writing to file a formal complaint regarding my recent travel experience with [Airline], which was by far the worst I have ever encountered. What occurred was not only unprofessional, but in several instances discriminatory, unsafe, and unacceptable. On the first leg of my trip, I arrived only four minutes past check-in. Instead of making any attempt to resolve the matter, your representative flatly denied me boarding and made me wait while she attended to passengers who arrived after me. By the time a manager intervened, it was too late to board, costing me time, money, and unnecessary frustration. The second leg of my trip (Chicago–San Francisco) raised even more serious concerns. From the outset, it was apparent that the staff—particularly two attendants—prioritized Caucasian passengers while dismissing African American and minority passengers. • When a Caucasian passenger in the exit row refused to comply with federal safety requirements, I, as a first responder, immediately offered to switch seats and assume the responsibility. My offer was blatantly ignored, and instead, a Caucasian passenger seated further up was chosen. This was discriminatory and deeply insulting, especially as I was actively de-escalating the situation that could have delayed the flight further. • During a lengthy tarmac delay of over 90 minutes, passengers were given conflicting and unreasonable instructions that created unnecessary distress and tension. • Throughout the flight, a visibly intoxicated passenger directly in front of me was disruptive, rude to others, failed to comply with seatbelt and electronic device rules, and yet faced no enforcement from the crew. In stark contrast, I was singled out for repeated compliance checks even though I was following every rule. This unequal treatment was so obvious that multiple passengers around me spoke up in my defense. This pattern of behavior demonstrated a clear lack of professionalism, disregard for passenger safety, and discriminatory treatment. I expect far better from an airline of your stature. As a paying customer subjected to this unacceptable treatment, I am formally requesting: 1. A full investigation into the conduct of the staff on both flights. 2. A written apology acknowledging the discriminatory and unprofessional behavior I endured. 3. Appropriate compensation for the distress, inconvenience, and mishandling of my travel. If this matter is not addressed promptly and thoroughly, I will have no choice but to escalate my complaint further, including filing with the U.S. Department of Transportation and sharing my experience through other channels. I trust [Airline] will take this complaint seriously and provide a timely resolution.
Check in was quick and easy during early hours. Flight was on time, and customer services was a plus.
Once we got in the air the pilot made up some of the time of the delay. So that was really nice.
We had a layover from YVR to Denver. We bought 4 bottles of Absolut Vodka at the YVR Duty Free for $116.20, after going through security and American Customs Pre Clearance at YVR, Vancouver. When we landed in Denver, United put us behind the American Customs as well as TSA again for some reason. We were forced to go through American Customs and TSA again. TSA confiscated our rightfully owned Duty Free Absolut Vodka bottles. Because United incorrectly forced our flight behind American border and TSA again, we missed the connecting flight. After United put us on a later flight, we eventually arrived in Chicago very late, with hardly any sleep. I am looking for compensation from United for our incorrectly confiscated Absolut Vodka bottles worth $116.20, as well as compensation for incorrectly putting us behind American Customs and TSA again, causing us to miss our connecting flight, making us arrive extremely late in Chicago.
Worst than I expected, crew was not attentive, meal was as disgusting , they didn’t even drink selections as they would to other passengers. I felt discriminated
cannot get seat information for LAX to IAH when check in in XI,AN
UA is ok. But check in was a very bad experience
I hate that you cannot check in online and when you are at the airport, there aren't any aisle seats left. Also, they could work a little on subtitles for their movies (not everyone is a native English speaker).
Nothing to complain of, the only reason I am not giving better marks is that I am used to flying with ANA and they are the top.
It's terrible that we can't do online check in because we didn't buy the tickets directly from Air china. It was not explained until I contacted Chatdeal and we could not sit together.
Communication between the captain/crew and the passengers needs to be improved.
Food and service are good. Bathroom was lack of lotions and cleaning. That should be improved.
Food & service very good next I will pick up again
Chinese flight attendants didn't speak english well. They didn't care enough to remember that I (east asian who isn't Chinese) wasn't Chinese and spoke English. Announcement in english on board was poor and I find it very difficult to understand what was announced. Also, a cabin bag allows only 5kg!
