The crew need to be more friendly it seem everything such a rush situation during dinner and breakfast. Smiles to the passenger go such a long way just the service from Seattle to Taipei, service from Taipei to Bangkok were great more pleasant the flight attendant from Thailand she was very nice, as far as entertainment were amazing , wiffi connection was incredible great, I will be able to charged my phone from Seattle to Taipei and from taipei to Bangkok I won’t be able to do so flight attendant told me that because I don’t have the original iPhone charger connection has nothing to do what type of charger I have so she said there is nothing she can do about it. Foods : from Seattle to Taipei were ok no flavor , from Taipei to Bangkok I have chicken teriyaki the rice is overcooked all the flavor stuck on the aluminum wraps , breakfast the congee was on point and delicious. Will I recommend anyone to fly with Eva air go for it so you can experience yourself for myself I won’t fly with them again I’m gonna stick with Singapore airlines instead.

Never went. Got rescheduled with Phillipine Airlines to Bali, which was fine.

I am really satisfied with Eva Air and will definitely fly with them again.

The flight from SEA to Taipei was on a Boeing 787-10. Economy seats were unacceptably cramped and the seats themselves were old and lacking cushion. I'm only 5'3" and couldn't cross my legs as my knees were up against the seat in front of me! I could not get WiFi to work most of the time on both flights and crew were invisible except to serve meals. The onboard entertainment also did not work reliably and was very hard to hear through the provided earbuds. The Asian vegetarian meals were interesting. I hope they can provide a fully vegan option though these meals seemed to be already. I appreciate their providing these meals options for vegans. I don't think I'll fly a 787-10 if I can help it. It was the definition of a sardine can in Economy.

My luggage was lost and didnt arrive in manila yesterday. And until now im still waiting for the confirmation if my luggage is teady for pick up in terminal 1

I always preferred EVA air every time I visit Philippines. It’s just this time that I have to be very early to make sure that I don’t miss my flight due to TSA problem. There’s only one choice of food serve which you use to have 2 on our flight from Taiwan to Philippines . Otherwise I will still use EVA air in my future flight.

Service was great. Flight schedule was on time. Staffs are friendly.

Overall was good but it would be good if the airline is providing snack such as sandwich or instant noodle between meals for LA to Taipei

Amazing customer service. BUT!! It would be nice if the flight attendants SMILE a little more, I know they are doing their job, but it is importantly to smile back and be warm to passengers. Nobody is trying to hit on them, it’s just being polite. So, please Taiwanese flight attendants: SMILE MORE WHEN YOU INTERACT WITH PAYING CUSTOMERS

It was easy going check in was easy and pretty fast entertainment was up to date on movies and food was ok

We boarded late and it snowballed from there. Had to wait behind 6 other flights to take off before us. Then, arriving late to our destination, we had to circle in the air for 20 minutes. If that's not enough, the seats are very cramped on their iteration if the A321neo. I'm 6"3' tall and my knees were pressed against the seat in front of me. These are not the slimline seats that offer less cushion with more leg room. I had no room to move my legs. Since I am an adult male, I also had no shoulder room. I sat on an aisle seat to have some space to lean my should out. But the walkway seemed to be more narrow than I am used to see. I felt bad for the middle passenger because there was just no where for me to put my shoulders except into the middle seat person. I don't plan to fly in this airline again in this configuration. Pack everyone in and lose my business.

We really enjoyed our flight to Seattle. The food was great and service was attentive.

Everything was fine except the seats were quite compressed and hard for the 12 hour flight

The crew are amazing. Very professional, polite, kind, and accommodating.

The crew was very professional and friendly. Although there was a water leak from panel above, the crew was trying to mitigate the consequence. We are happy with its service and the value offered. We will definitely take China Airlines again.

Well, we upgraded and on a 14 hour flight not sure how we would tolerate it otherwise. The upgrades are ridiculously expensive and even with empty seats even in first class it was difficult to upgrade. Probably won’t fly China Air again due to this. The attendants tho were much better than the airlines in the states and there attentiveness and care for your comfort far exceeds other airlines in the states.

Flight attendants. Food, entertainment and most of all, be on time.

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.

Hour late but understandable under the conditions. Taoyuan airport could have clearer signs language wise and more staff to help direct people.

Delayed. Not a full flight and whole rows left open with the paid seating. Food was ok. My beef meal only had one cube of beef the rest carrot cubes. Entertainment on personal device but didn’t know about it until the flight was almost done.

The ladies are great seats should be a little bigger!

Couple of hours delayed, we had to re-booked our Shinkansen reservation twice. United Aiines need to improve their time!

The staff is amazing, I cannot stress that enough! The food is really good and snacks at stations to take for yourselves. Economy seating is fine, not the most comfortable, but our friends in Premium Economy said they were very comfortable! Decent entertainment options, but being built in, you have to use their cheap headsets unless you have your own plug in ones. I only have Bluetooth earbuds.

It was good. The crew was efficient, food was good

Seats were extremely cramped even for economy. Food was atrocious. Crew was fine but no follow up, additional drinks offered etc. For a 14 hour flight I expected more.

Boarding was good. Inflight service was good. Alcoholic drinks could have been served free.

Suite lounge in Honolulu is the best lounge in Honolulu. I love the huge bathrooms in ANA first Class on the A380 Honu plane. Japanese meal was outstanding and service was amazing. Everything was just excellent. Can’t wait to fly again

Their was $200 charge for 2nd luggage, airplane very new and flight smooth. Flight time seem faster then Asian stoping Korea then china.

Flight was late boarding. United crew were not friendly and cordial unlike the ANA crew.

Seat was broken. Check in was not possible until we reached the gate, by then we were separated.

Humm, I should have known that the seat I peaked on my flight from Inchon to Manila was designed for a toddler or very small person.

The staff hold my luggage to steel and exchange my stub, i was very disappointed.

Kayak along with airfare assay are attempting to steal my money. Charges are being pressed.

Customer service and attention to details. The food was good.

Felt like the oldest plane in Asiana Fleet. Screen was 5-6in only and no charging at all. Movie selection wasn't great.

Food could be better it was okay. Entertainment seems dated it was something but in this day and age could be a lot better.

I’d have rated Asiana good except an unfortunate incident in which I felt one of your employee didn’t really help us. During the first leg of the trip, the flight from LAX to ICN, I left my backpack on the plane. When I realized, I reported to one of your employee who promised me that it’d be taken care of, that my backpack will be there at HCM city. When we arrived there, HCM people had no idea and my backpack was still at Incheon airport who denied any knowledge whatsoever. I was left in the cold and felt helpless. I was very disappointed. I’d like someone to look into this and let me know.

It was my first time flying Asiana but i was very pleased with how professional and understanding the flight crew is with little kids. One flight attendant held my 3 year old daughter’s hand guiding her to the exit after landing while i had my hands full with luggage and my infant. She was very helpful.

Better screens, it would have been nice to have more comfortable seats.

2nd major delay due to maintenance issues. 1st delay missed my connecting flight.

The crew and the food were excellent. The plane was kept quite clean.

Crew were not engaging. Only engaged if requested. Food taste was mediocre

My seat had many issues. First the chair was broken where reclining was difficult. My usb plug was also broken so charging was impossible.

The flight from Hong Kong to Hyderabad didn’t have any power points to charge my mobile. Given we are no longer allowed to use power banks, giving customers the ability to charge even on short flights is critical part of the overall experience.

Multiple late or canceled flights. Lounge was 100 degrees. Food was terrible. The plane was incredibly old, and best of all, a screaming child for 3 hours. All for the low low price of $2,600 one way Hanoi to Shanghai. No idea how Cathay is ranked so high. Cathay is not much better than American Airlines or Spirit. In the future I will go out of my way to not fly Cathay.

Flights home are always happy, except this time I was traveling to be with my ailing father.

when i ask for help all the crew members had a look like why are you calling me? very terse and rude.

Good service and food. However, we paid over $400 for aisle seats for my disabled husband and me, and we were given window and middle seats. This was dangerous for our health condition on such a long flight. We needed to stand up and walk around frequently, but we were stuck in our seats. Please give us a refund of our seat payment since you chose not to honor our request.

Very bad Instead 22 hour it take me more that 35 hour to arrive from Los Angeles to Phuket and they changed my flight in Hong Kong to Shanghai china and in order to get my bag I was forced to vet china visa entrry

There could have been more options on the entertainment section Nothing was available for non English speaking passengers
