As good as everyone says? EVA AIR Business Class on the A330 | Flight Review 長榮航空
EVA Air's (長榮航空) Business Class is called Royal Laurel class, and ,if I'm not mistaken, is in a 2-2-2 configuration for regional routes, and 1-2-1 for longer flights. But certainly depending on the aircraft type. While all A330's have the denser one, the B787, for example, has the 1-2-1 seats. Anayway, what counts is the comfort and service you get for the money, and since the reviews about this Business Class were quite good, the expectations were high. And this is the outcome. The flight took me from Guangzhou (廣州市 / 广州市) to Taipei (臺北市 / 台北市) in Taiwan (ROC)(臺灣 / 台灣).

This late evening flight from Shanghai Pudong (PVG) (上海浦东国际机场) to Vientiane Wattay (VTE) in Laos was conducted by China Eastern Airlines (中國東方航空) on their Airbus A320neo in Business Class, where I was enjoying a great service and good food.

Lucky for travelers in China/Chinese Airline. You get good food for 3 hours flight? In USA, anything under 6-7 hours, you get nothing.
C919 all part from west companyes ... even that do not make it secure ....
Pls don’t fly with pegasus airlines . Very bad services and experience . U will definitely spoilt your holidays if u fly with them .
How much were you paid by China?
The same amount as you get paid for this intellectual comment.
great video, and amazing airplane, take a great time in your travels, cheers 😉
I would feel more confident on a us air craft than a chinese one when the war happens. They have no history in war,ever. Where do thei fighters enegins come from.? No more chinese students, spys. My son date one. Dad,ca i write a book !
Chinese R&D is “HEY GOOGLE”😅😅😅😅😅😅
the plane is already a lost cause. it is inefficient compared to boeing and airbus.
God bless the passengers 😅😅😅
Thank you for another detailed review! Looks like you had a wonderful time in business class. The chicken with cashew nuts looked delicious too although the IFE system looks outdated. I recently flew with EVA Air for the first time a couple of weeks ago from Taipei to Osaka in economy on their 787-10. I was disappointed with the food and service. The meal lacked taste and the aircraft was quite dirty. I had high expectations. Anyhow, I am curious to experience the Hello Kitty themed aircraft and service. I read somewhere that everything on board including the meal service is Hello Kitty themed. In fact, there's a demo Hello Kitty themed check-in area at Taipei Taoyuan Airport which showcases some of the Hello Kitty themed meals and souvenirs from the flight. I highly recommend trying out STARLUX. Had a superb in flight experience with them! Tasty food, latest IFE tech and excellent service from the crew.
This review is the same as the young guy doing the tic tok at the beginning. Someone dancing for liked! Nothing objective about this just another bought review courtesy of the CCP.
It's an impressive achievement. I would love to fly on one.
Be honest I don't think C919 will go much further and I don't think China still has much interests to push this program forward. The future trajectory of the C919 aircraft program faces significant challenges, mainly geopolitical. A key vulnerability lies in its reliance on numerous components and services sourced from U.S. companies, including critical systems such as avionics, engines, and other subsystems. While this approach was likely aimed at streamlining certification processes and meeting international safety standards, it has inadvertently made the program susceptible to external pressures, particularly in the context of escalating trade tensions. In the event of a trade conflict, the U.S. could impose export restrictions on these components, effectively stalling production and limiting the aircraft's potential market access. Additionally, if China attempts to replace these foreign-sourced components with domestically produced alternatives, the aircraft would require re-certification-an arduous and uncertain process that could further delay its adoption and undermine its competitiveness in the global aviation market. Despite challenges from reliance on U.S. components, the C919 could still serve China's domestic market if replaced with local alternatives. However, such changes would likely transform it into a new program rather than the original C919 initiative.
Fun fact I quite literally forgot my passport on a Tap A330neo (SFO-LIS)
Haha, that’s hilarious:)) I hope you got it back.
Looks more like an A319 ripoff to me
I haven't had business class before. But got upgraded and wanted to know what business class means lol. Your video was very informative and engaging thank you
Thank you:)
機体と乗務員の制服のデザインが良い。
I quite like the uniform, one of the nicest I have seen.
Yes will ride the C919
Software for media play is way older with slow response plus no Bluetooth. Evaair is out of update.
It depends on the aircraft and configuration. They have newer Boeing 787-10s which are slight more up to date.
❤c919
Most of the C919 is made outside of China. Fuselage, I think, and some other stuff, is made in China. All the important things are made in Europe and the US. So the majority isn't made in Chine unless you refer to quantity and not quality.
Totally true but never mentioned
Wow..Voss mineral water?
I was really enjoying this until I noticed you were flying business class. Honestly, it’s a bit frustrating-why do all aviation bloggers gravitate toward the luxurious upper cabins? Most of us will never set foot in business, and it feels a bit disconnected from the real-world experience. I’d be far more intrigued by a review that highlights the food, comfort, and overall experience in economy class, something the masses can relate to.
His ticket was paid for. Guess who paid for it.
In 10 years the market share will be like 320:737:919 = 5:2:3
Price?
Where your accent from? Sounds a lil French.
Embraer is doing reallly well too. Chinese are taking over, just look at byd.
sure it is a steal. China spend $6billion developing it and paying $250 for a business class seat is similar to taking high speed rail so much value for the passengers. Unfortunately for China Eastern it is still struggling to breakeven. I am sure they are paying top prices for the honor. Would you still take it if they decide to charge to cover cost and the ticket price is $2500 if not more?
Thank you for this very fair review. COMAC is just starting out on a long journey, and from all reports the C919 is a great first step in this sector. Let's wish them every success. Free and fair competition benefits all.
if you all think the seat comfort is the essential of an airplane then there is something wrong with your mindset because all of the rest is pure speculation🤦🏻♂
It's 4star hotel
THERE'S NO ANY NEWS OF EXPLODING CHINA ROCKETS(HIGHEST RISKS) 550 OVER LAUNCHED TODATE....USA NO ROCKET IN 2024......
I close my eyes and I’m hearing Arnold Schwarzenegger ❤
I don't think it is a big deal as Comac is not really trying to sell the ARJ21's. They are trying to promote C919 and going to build C929 and C939. I'm pretty sure that Comac is licensing these places for airlines who want to buy a cheap version of DC-9 because it is a familiar platform.
Mega gut geworden! Ich mag EVA auch sehr. Freu mich auf das Review des Dreamliner Produkts!
Danke:))
Tablecloth for your table? Never seen that before.😅
At the beginning of your video you refer Istanbul as Instanbul! I am unsure if you miss that or not ?
By the way you might get lucky on a regional trip to get the Sanrio Livery Jets. My father used to do Taipei to Manila heavily on Eva Air in fact one traveling from the west coast to the Philippines they are cheaper than Philippine Airlines which you hear the Taiwanese people say 菲律賓航空. Did you use miles and more Swiss frequent flyer Lufthansa Brussels Airlines on this flight on Eva Air. For my home airport MNL Hello Kitty Jets are BR277/271.
I used my Aegean Miles (Miles & Bonus) for the EVA Air flights. Another EVA Air Review is coming around February, and it will be a bit different:)
Thank you for another very interesting and informative review!
Thank you very much 🙏
Pronounced as E-vah. Owned by Evergreen Group of Taipei, Taiwan. Evergreen also own a regional subsidary airline called Uni Air which operate ATR aircraft flying to smaller islands of Taiwan. Evergreen also have container ships some really big ones too up to almost 400m in length and they also operate hotels
I hope you had a Merry Christmas. I agree with you in that I enjoy the glass jet bridges. I think they are quite enjoyable. I always said "Ee-vuh" Air, I'm glad you educated me today.
Haha, my pleasure :)
Meery Xmas.Great Video And Info
Thank you, and merry Xmas 🎄
I would think their A350s most likely have the newer Biz configuration. I would like to fly a long haul on them, maybe like TPE-SEA, or similar. Thanks for the report and thanks for clarifying E...V...A... Air's correct name.
Thanks for your comment. I certainly hope to try their A350 as well. We‘ll see what next year brings :)
Schöni Wienachte und e guets neus Jahr!
Merci gliichfalls, das wünsch i dier au :)
The high fuel consumption scared big airlines from ordering this plane
Sehr schöne Video,interessant mit so eine alte Klassiker zu fliegen
seems to be very good..
China is the only civilized country.
I will slightly disagree with review Turkish is not presenting like european career which operate from hub to hub but turkish aim like emirates which want istunbul as hub airport And if you aim you need wide body planes not A321 I flew from manchester to istunbul 4 hour 7 hour lay off then 3.5 on a321 Where is sleep They need wide body planes to compete with emirates
I'm amazed by the 2-4-2 configuration in Economy! I'm further surprised that TAP is using an A330NEO for this route! I'm also an American and our airlines are ridiculous. I stumbled across this video because I'm VERY excited that our upcoming flight on a TAP A330-NEO (30 December) will be my first to Europe, my first via a European carrier AND my first on an Airbus airframe. In addition, I'm the only Aviation geek I know. So, sometimes it's just fun to ride along. Do you have any advice on filming in-flight? As you mention in this video; some Cabin Crews are VERY sensitive to the idea (which I totally understand). I want them to know I'm a friend.
I‘m always happy to hear (read) about other avgeeks:) Regarding filming I‘d say its important to be discrete and to respect others privacy. Quite often I just ask if it’s okay and I explain my intentions. There were even situations where I felt filming was not welcome, and then I just didn’t do a flight review. Turkish Airlines was quite borderline. Or KLM. If in doubt, better ask. I hope this helps a little bit.
@ It definitely helps! Thanks very much. 😁
