The plane was half empty and I lucky to get three seats to myself allowing me to stretch my legs. Even without that the regular leg space in economy was quite comfortable compared to some other planes in recent memory. Food was fine I’m not vegetarian, but neither of the options offered was. So order vegetarian ahead when checkin in.
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?
nice touch with the presentation of a mooncake as part of the meal for the Mooncake Festival, or Mid-Autumn Festiva on my flight. Was a really pleasant and heartwarming surprise. Thank you!
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
More new and classic movies in English. Boarding was a bit chaotic. Nore, clearer information during boarding to customers.
Flight attendants were very helpful and nice. Would be nice to board on time.
Overall is good. But Asian movie selection was not great at all. And also more snack food to give out
When requesting water, make sure, as a passenger, you specify cold or ice added to your cup
We really enjoyed our flight to Seattle. The food was great and service was attentive.
The crew are amazing. Very professional, polite, kind, and accommodating.
Very bad. They don’t allow group people to sit together by blocking most of seats and opening only single seat during online checking in. . By doing so, they can rip off customers at the check-in counter by collecting extra money if we want to sit together in the same row.
I love my Delta crew, they were so welcoming and helpful.
I absolutely loved my flight from Taipei to LAX. I was originally assigned to a different seat, however one of the stewardess noticed I was uncomfortable in my seat. She offered to move me to a more comfortable setting. Although she didn’t have to do what she did, I am more than grateful and thankful for her doing so. My longer flight felt much more comfortable, just by her taking notice. I really appreciate her.
Airline itself is great. While food was being taken off of my tray my beer spilled which was a total accident and I wasn’t upset about that, what was frustrating was I had to ask for towels to clean up and wipe my leg. It would have been left as is if I hadn’t.
Bars and restaurants in Taipei close early. The lounge isn’t very good, but better than the public areas.
The flight who provided services on my row had some not-nice attitude and not smiling at all.
Comfort was left wanting due to such a long flight, made the wife and I wish we could upgrade the seats to Business class or First Class, but did not have that option. Food was good but had very limited options and I have a dietary restriction which was difficult for the staff to accommodate since everything provided came with cheese on it. (Cheese could potentially kill me) Did not have an option to inform the staff until we were already in the air about the restriction and was not provided another option before flight departed.
We thought we were going on an ANA flight airline, but why did it become a UNITED airplane? Otherwise, our flight was good, despite an hour delay on boarding, we still landed according to original time!?!? Food was not bad, especially the short ribs and mash potatoes. 😋 Flight attenders were attentive and polite.
For a late night flight, the lights were kept on for a long time so it was hard to sleep. They also served the food late. But most frustrating is that I had booked an aisle seat on Kayak but the airline changed it to a middle seat.
Long haul from Chicago to Tokyo was great, traveled in the ROOM on ANA and experience was great all around. The flight from Tokyo to Bangkok was fine. Definitely a good way to go. Should have stopped in Tokyo for a bit.
Refer to the Osaka-Tokyo one, it explained how I felt about both flights
I am a United 1K flyer but certainly I would fly ANA again. Great inflight service!
"The Room" is the only way to fly. The service was excellent and the stewardesses we all gorgeous and friendly. The boarding process was delayed and the attendants at the airport were not the best.
Great. Very helpful staff and accommodating. The flight was also smooth
My son flew and had a great experience.. thank you for taking care of my baby
Good. Got me there and back safely and mostly on time. 30 min delay for maintenance once but that means more time for nap. Crew was super nice.
Not much world movies especially other Asian countries movies (only Japanese movies)
It was a great experience had been wanting to fly emirates to Dubai for long time. Thank you to all the staff.
everything was great , perhaps lower pricing and more miles incentive and prolong expiration of miles
Enjoyed it very much, excellent aircraft, excellent flight attendants. I will be happy to fly Emirates Air again.
Business boarding is too messy, if can be systematic will be better
Good service. I wish there was more legroom. The food could be improved with additional options.
The crew was very attentive and delivered great service unlike any other airline. It was our first time with Emirates. Our only critique is the food. Pasta pesto is not very common. Tomato sauce would’ve been more of a crowd pleaser. Beef curry sounds bad because curry can be very tough on the stomach. We were in row 26 and the pasta ran out, meaning no one wanted the beef which says something. The beef was just ok… The rest of the food was very good and generous. The plane speaker sound could be better. It was tough to understand announcements even with headphones. Although we did not need them this time due to the purpose of our trip, we were surprised that 2 checked bags were included. That’d be great for the future. It was unpleasant though that our personal items were weighed (we’ve never had another airline do this), especially when we didn’t have checked bags and almost had our carry-ons checked. Overall it was a good experience, but we wish the prices were friendlier for such a short distance (Miami > Colombia).
It was very exlent flight and thanks a lot kayak
Flight was cancelled without notification. Information on flight status was not available on Emirates's website.
Child’s meal was great along with other nice touches for kids.
On this flight, about the last 2 hours the captain kept the cabin too hot. It appeared like the ac was off.
We left nearly 3 hours late...so that was not a good experience. We boarded and then ended up about 1 hour stuck at the gate. Not a good experience.
It is completely insane to me that first class does not include WiFi. Also does not include lounge access. Port for phone charging did not work. The crew was absolutely lovely, and the food was excellent.
I appreciate how quickly and kindly the people at the gate at DCA accommodated several of us who wanted to switch from the 6pm flight to the 5pm flight at the last minute. The flight crew was helpful to us too (dealing with luggage).
Went from a plane with free internet to a plane with paid internet. The entertainment screens didn’t work. Crammed in the back and the crew hit my knee with the cart really hard - it hurt. No apologies. I’m still limping today.
Very uncomfortable and cramped seats. Everything else was okay, the crew members were nice but nothing was exceptional.
Check in went smoothly. Flight attendant who was assigned my area barely paid any attention to me! She acted as though she was extremely busy and flustered. Maybe she was new?! I told her to change the language on my screen, she said she’d come back to help me but never did so I was able to solve the problem on my own. She came back and said she’d made adjustments on her end. Highly doubt it because I found the setting to change the language! Also, I noticed everyone was eating before we landed so I pushed my help button and she never came so I got up to find her to ask her if I can have breakfast. She said they are not serving breakfast but I can have a sandwich. Yes, that was her response as I saw everyone eating breakfast!!!
Terrible flight attendant. Rushing me as I ate my salad and appetizer. Served my dinner while I was still eating my salad. My dinner was dry and very salty. He asked me what I wanted to drink, I said flavored sparkling water. He said we don’t have that we have plain sparkling water. I’ve flown United many times and I know exactly what they have. 10 minutes later he asked me what flavor sparkling water I wanted. Did this with an attitude as if he was being bothered!
United staff were very communicative, the new starlink Wifi is amazing as I was able to work easily.
Seats are uncomfortable and hurt the lower back. Food served was barely ok. Too many people get on through pre-boarding and make the rest of us feel like cattle - even though we paid extra for our seats.
UA28 was good service and meals. UA is upgraded, I would like to book for next flight by UA Thanks Liao
