EVA Airways is the newest 5 star airline and it is well-deserved. Although their seat is not as beautiful as their competitor China Airlines, EVA's business class incorporates many elements typically found in first class. Each course is plated individually like first class, and the champagne Krug is typically considered a first class champagne. I think EVA is the only airline I know of that offers pajamas in business class, and they are very high quality. EVA is for sure the only airline to offer Rimowa kits in business class. EVA also offers a seat cover for making the bed unlike Cathay Pacific or China Airlines.
The lounge was the only disappointment. After talking with the ground crew, I found out that EVA was late to the game and their Star Alliance partner Lufthansa did not have any more room in their lounge. EVA had to contract with Alitalia and Korean Air, and alternate using each lounge. This time we were only allowed in to the Alitalia lounge which was old, dimly lit, with no hot food besides cup noodles. EVA is apparently well aware of this but the only thing they could do since they don’t operate the lounge is to add more flavors of cup noodles…
However, the service onboard was true 5 star fashion. It was organized, detailed, and professional. We were immediately welcomed by the FA and purser, who took down our pre and post departure drink orders. We were given pajamas and the famous Rimowa amenity kit, which is an awesome memento.
The food onboard was superior to some of Cathay’s first class meals I had. For business class catering, EVA offers the opportunity to book exclusive meals online similar to Singapore’s Book the Cook. I decided to order the wok-fried lobster and noodles as my main course to see how it would compare to the ones I had on Singapore. I was not disappointed. It was juicy, fresh, and perfectly seasoned, and I really wished they gave me the full lobster instead of only one half. I also ordered the beef burger to see how it would compare to Cathay. Again, I would say it is pretty clear EVA business class catering beats Cathay business catering. The burger was delicious and came with a large amount of curly fries. The pesto ravioli with bacon was the best and most memorable western style "breakfast" I have had on a plane thus far. Throughout the video, I think it is clear that EVA also does a beautiful job of plating the meals.
Entertainment was the only area that was lacking onboard. It had a fair amount of new movies but not anything interesting in terms of documentaries or TV shows (no family guy or simpsons…). I used the wifi and managed to get some work done. The seat on EVA is like Cathay’s, but modified significantly. The thing I noticed the most about EVA’s seat is that the main console is slightly behind your head so it is easier to look/film out the window on EVA.
EVA business class can best be summed up as business class seat with first class service. It becomes clear why they removed first class. Not only can they can fit more seats per plane than ever before, but first class simply isn’t necessary given how good their business class is.
Excellent video. Very well done, thanks for posting. Loved it!
One of the my Favorite airline all time!!
I agree, this is many times better than Cathay Pacific Business Class!
yvr2002rtw im a convert haha
DEFINITELY a terrific business class! Flew it several times between JFK & Taipei... the lounges in Taipei are very enjoyable, too.
really complete dinner course .. canape , appetizer salmon , corn soup , garden salad , Mie lobster , dessert cake and ice cream , cheese , fresh fruit , finished with juice ..
Fantastic, thanks! Especially all the food presentation.
Awesome! Down to earth amazingly prepared burger as an option. Now that's service. Don't always want the posh options 👍. Great thought to catering here
I have says the meals look extremely impressive for business class, better than some first class meals.
I had worst main courses in Cathay's first class and their reputation is much higher. Although based on reports only 2 or 3 years ago, EVA's weakness was its catering.
I am German but everytime I drive to Amsterdam only to fly Eva Air business to Bangkok, its awesome. Thank you for the nice video, made me dream of my next vacation !
Frank Europe Enjoy your trip
I've been watching this video for years. I flew EVA 4x IAH-MNL from 2017-2019 and it's my favorite airline. It keeps me motivated while I await my move to the Phils.....I started in 2016 now I have 420 days to go. Time goes by fast lol
Very detailed information about your flight, thanks for sharing!
I was very impressed with your presentation of the food and beverage menus. This is an area mny viewers like to see and you have done it proud !
Excellent video...thanks so much!
JC Baily thanks for watching!
Excellent
Great work! I like the scene before landing, just about right time of a day
Fico incrível com essas Grandes Cia da Asia! Excelente filmagem Ótima Refeição e Ótimo Vídeo; gosto Sempre de Assistir !!
Parabéns..
Thank you for this beautiful video! I love EVA and this video is one of the best I've seen to show off the food in particular. I agree the service is wonderfull :)
best food presentation in sky! Great Airline!
Wow the food served in this flight looks amazing. I'll have to try EVA sometime soon...
Much prefer these videos just showing me the product (service, food and space design that's all) instead of just a bunch of vloggers showing off, stuffing their faces, over eating, and about to take a break on the luxury toilet! This is why we travelers look at reviews on video or trip advisor -- for the product!! (Perhaps the vloggers are looking for dates. Who knows?!) Thank you for sharing.
I'm so lucky that they provide direct route between Cdg and TPE , I fly them 8 times per year and they always provide a good service whatever it's eco , elite or laurel. Nice channel, subbed
Yeap I am hoping I will have the chance to try out their premium economy, I was very impressed with China Airline's premium eco
Really enjoy your vlogs bc your camera really lingers on each and every dish from all different angles (for the food lovers in us!), especially if you're traveling in Business class the meals are worth showing. Starting 21:36, you can see the cheese melting. Great color and clarity!
shihlin1 thanks! I love food so I do it for my own sake as well. I'll have new videos soon but I'm not sure how i can upload thanks to the great fire wall of china
Taiwan is so beautiful I want to go again by myself
Love your report. Will fly EVA business from TPE to JFK in July. Looking forward to it!
Great review, with views of Taipei!!!
Vladimir Melnikov thanks man. I'm planning to see if I can fly aeroflot sometime in the next few months
i thought there was no food onboard, until i saw the burger:)
Krug on a value-for-money business class airline is amazing.
PJs in the Business Class - that's new!
14:48 16:58 looks amazing !!
Burger and fries as a night snack, now that's flying!
voutenixz YOU CANT BEAT MURDER BURGERS 🍔 FROM WHITE CASTLE 🏰 LMAO 😂
VERI NICE EVAER.
Great Video
HaaHaa HeeHee-Aviation Fan thanks!
superbe: this is 1st class alike!
I flew EVA several times in the past, in premium economy on the 747s. The food was so bad, truly awful. I finally figured out to order Kosher meals, they were very nice. This is a whole new ball game and the food looks excellent. Great overview of the newer EVA product. BTW, Turkish Airlines does provide a quilted full bed cover in business class.
Amazing
eva air very good Airlines , i like so much
I am looking forward to fly on EVA the Royal Laurel (1st time) on TPE-SIN sit in 9 row window) on two months after the night flight from SEA (Eco class) On way back in mid-January sit on 6 row (window) Royal Laurel before night flight back to SEA (Eco class). Great video and delicious foods. Nice seat with two windows.
They are a safe and nice airline . I love the moving map asp when showing parts of china Japan and Korea they fly over or near. Thank you. They used to fly a 763er to Australia
Dude if you have a chance to fly with EVA again, don't miss their Hello Kitty themed jet!
Everything is featured with Hello Kitty. Utensils, uniform of the crew, food even the evergreen special lol
(It was kind of funny when I used the toilet paper and saw hello kitty's face on it haha)
I'm not a big fan of Hello Kitty but I find it pretty cool to have such an unique experience.
btw, I really like your channel. =) The description is really detailed.
Thanks! I will try again in the future to catch their hello kitty jet
I love the EVA AIR business class seats, they are fantastic. Great trip report thank you for posting.
When I Travel The World thanks! EVA really surprised me. I was more excited for my China airlines flight but now I really can't wait to fly with EVA again
Mattress covers seem very rare in business, I think AA has started using them on their Hong Kong flights but I think only JAL uses them regularly
Reverse herringbone seats are the best business seats in the business!
The EVA Airlines is Speatcul Excellent engine and transmission in the future of our lives.😇🤗😘🤔😈
By far the best airline presentation i have seen. May i ask what is the setting on your camera and is the lens on manual focus?
I set it to Aperture priority and open it up to f2.8 to 4 usually depending on how much light I get. Apparently though I read I should set it to focus priority and manual ISO.
Ok but how about the lens is it on auto or manual focus? I cant hear any motor when you focus so i assume your using manual focus anyways your video is always of good quality and your presentation is the best. Ive never used my dslr for video cause its heavy and lacks zoom power but seeing this having the same lens ill think ill be learning too, downside is i have failing eyesight and i have a hard time using manual focus, autofocus isnt also an option cause its slow and motor is noisy.
Outstanding trip report! Another excellent service on an EVA AIR's flight. The pilots of EVA AIR must be very well-trained for landing, the landing on EVA AIR flights are often very good
Best airline
Thank you for an incisive report, especially food-wise and service which alas, often means the difference between a good flight and you cant wait to get out off. Ref: AA, UA,Need i say more? Never tried Air Koryo
nice
their red-eye flights should be using Air France lounge (at least when I took it last year), which is wayyyy better than how Alitalia looks like from your report. Wonder why they don't just go use the Lufthansa one, both star alliance members...
You go no wrong with EVA. I'm taking EVA to Malaysia next month. Not that crazy about their current boarding / farewell music. I still like the old one.
Great video! FYI Qantas provides pyjamas in business
Warren J thanks for the heads up. Maybe I'll get the chance to try them one day
With the exception of no caviar, everything else is on par with a first class meal. I also flew EVA Business class in 2015 on TPE-LAX route and I don't recall EVA pushing out a cheese/fruit cart during meal service. Could it be JFK route gets preferential treatment over LAX? Even the appetizer here looks much better than our LAX flight. Hmm, something tells me the choice and selection differs by route, even if they are U.S. routes. This JFK meal is the best I've seen on any EVA flight.
Nice video, I always love watching Eva air business class, one of my favorite for all time.
May I ask which device did you use for filming?
Wirun Thongchumnum D5500 with a sigma 17-50mm lens
The meal service is way much better than CX first class. If only EVA serve Caviar, it would be perfect.
Louis Chiu I agree. I hope I can fly EVA more and get a better sense of them. But I like what I see so far
Louis Chiu why dont you take some Beluga with you on board.?
Louis Chiu mind you this is business not first.i usually see caviar in first class only
Contrast EVA Air service with that of Air China. Their Skytrax 5 star rating is well deserved.
Peter Yeong ithink you mean Hainan? Air china is 3 stars ithink
Air China is from China( PRC) ,Not Taiwan's (ROC) China Airlines
what is that mint cocktail you have.. that looks great BTW. Great video. I flew EVA Laurel class From SIN-TPE-JFK in 2014. Service was terrible. I pre ordered the meals. but overall service was not good as i see in your video. They must have changed lot of things.
thanks for sharing.
Interesting thanks for watching. I think it was called the Evergreen special?
thank you.
wow. they serve Krug Grande Cuvee which is normally served in First Class. Too bad their champagne selection is only on rotation and depends on route. One time they also served Krug Rose.
Very nice report !
thanks!
影片過長了，編輯時捨去一些會更好。
why do i watch these at late night? while hungry?
I used to make the same mistake
golfmaniac007 I WATCH MY AIRPLANE ✈️ MEDITATION 🧘♂️ ON UA-cam, ITS ACTUALLY LONGER 10 hr flight ✈️ YOU SHOULD TRY IT OUT 👍
i came here becuase i wanted to see if EVA business if good, since im ganna be taking a flight by them home.
what is the boarding music that eva air plays?? i can't seem to find it anywhere on the web..
Love the foods and alcohol beverages
Great video
Great video!!! Do you remember what seat you were in?
virgin atlantic have pyjamas in business class
Alitalia Lounge? Man you must have had a bad hangover the day before the flight. Nobody would do this !!!!!
Nice video, but:
You should check Emirates, Qatar Airways and others in business class and compare :-)
that looked a rather late rotation ! :)
Best Business Class in the air?
An excellent and detailed video with special attention to food and beverages. I loved it and all the colourful drinks you had. The lobster you had did not appear to be on the menu. Did you order it ahead? The food and presentation seemed delightful, but, was it tasty? Anyway, congratulations on a job well done.mmi hope you enjoyed your flight even more than we who enjoyed it did. Thanks.
Opera Maven thanks for watching. Yeap it was ordered online and it was very good. The presentation is definitely 5 star quality
The flight lasted almost 16 hours? O.o
Oss Muller yes that's from us to Asia in general Japan I think it was about 13
From 3:15 to 4:30, I just love that boarding song! Does anyone know its name and if there is a clearer version of it anywhere?
just search on youtube they have the EVA airlines boarding music :)
l think this is actually the "Royal Laurel Class" which is equivalent to first class
Laurel laurel class is equivalent of biz class. Eco= eco ; elite class= pre eco ; pre laurel or Royal laurel= biz
was this business or first class?
Why does JFK look so empty?
It is suc.... in business class, Eva doesn't have seats for couple ...
Yap, they always ask why you are filming.. and sometime they told me not to film the staff even when I was filming myself :/
The dinner menu shows that only lamb, chicken and chilean seabags. I don't see lobster anywhere on the menu. Am I missing something?
There is an online meal preordering service
EVA Air have the best service and security of any airline in the world! Democratic Taiwan is the best in everything! See you soon!
I can see why you liked Eva better than air China.
The turbine Chanel!!!!
Nice video！
Did you have fun in Taiwan?
Kuan Kuan Lai haha take a guess
我想應該是很放鬆的旅行😂
Kuan Kuan Lai yeap very relaxing and fun =)
我很高興你喜歡這次的旅行，希望這會成為你美好的回憶🙆🙆🙆
Curious what time this flight left? I thought flights from the east coast (I'm in Toronto), left around midnight or just after. I'm travelling there next year, and dreading the 1:30am departure.
EVA offers a day flight. I believe it is around a noon time departure similar to Korean Air or ANA
How many carry on luggage can you bring on business class?
great job with this video! how did you have room for all of the food?
what is the lounge in newyork? Please do a detailed review on SQ lounge and Eva air lounge at Taipei!!
FLIGHT EXAMINOR the lounge is the alitalia lounge. I'm hoping next time I can fly EVA from Taipei too
great. If possible man, do a detailed review on both SQ lounges at taipei and seoul if you have any chance.:)))) You just have to show singapore lounge your eva air boarding pass:)
Sitting is the Eva lounge at JFK now, for flight JFK to TPE. Not a good experience at all. Bad food, dirty tables, and so hit in here that it is melting my face off. Really wish they had workstations like other lounges and hot food options other than instant ramen.
Did you experience any turbulence on this trip?
Justin E A LITTLE HINT WHEN YOU SEE A DRINK 🥃 SHAKING THATS WHEN YOU ARE IN TURBULENCE, JUST SAYING
The food was all for free? You ate a lot :P
Yeap I did. Its not really "free" since its in the cost of the ticket, but you can eat and drink to your hearts content. If you use points then yeah since you are paying only 6USD in taxes and fees
Great review but why do these videos always include the takeoff and long periods of looking out the window? Like half the video! The audience has seen this!
Rob Case Errr , it’s a video about a flight , many people , myself included , think that the view is a significant part of the experience ; I find this an excellent overall balance of reporting the level of service and sharing the flight.
@@maninthecab Agree. The window views are a pivotal part of any trip report. As you said - this is about flight!
Best Airline ever XDD
How do you get such a cool job ?
legal
Can i have flight from.Cebu to Taipei,Eva Air.thanks your reply.
I hate to ask but how much your flight.
DO THEY HAVE TROJANS ON BOARD THE FLIGHT ✈️ LOL 😂
Where the airport lounge service?
Bapak Oren di Yutube....bukan Bapak Jenderal Dony Monardo.......,!!!!..Soppee.......Bosnya.....
Is there wifi
Yeah,the foreign airlines like Emirates, Singapore, China Air and Eva business class seats are better than the American airlines. American airlines seats are crampy and shitty. Why can't the American airlines be like them?
Sam Chu because america is now shit...
沒有介紹，沒有道白，也沒有背景音樂…這哪是長榮該有的腳本啊？太寒酸了吧？！
This is an awesome video and I love the EVA Air business class as well. I made a review update as of May 2018 on my channel. Please check it out and let me know what you guys think! 😊
