Has anyone had any experience using EVA Airways for long-haul flights? We’re planning a visit to Vietnam in February and have never even heard of this airline. Comfort (in economy class) is a priority for us, because it’s a very long journey.
EVA Air is a very reputable Taiwan airline. I have never flown it but plenty friends and relatives have. It has superb service from what I have been told. https://www.airlinequality.com/airline-reviews/eva-air/
I am also flying EVA air in February. I haven't flown them before, so I can't comment on that, but I read some good reviews of their Premium Economy (which is what we chose). Reviews of regular economy are more mixed.

I have flown with EVA twice from Seattle, the first time to Thailand in 2019 in premium economy and last December to Vietnam in economy. It is a very good airline. Taipei is a very good and easy airport for a layover. We flew into Hanoi and home from Saigon. Don't hesitate to use EVA. We loved Vietnam!
I have also flown EVA air twice. Very good airline, I would not hesitate to fly them again.
I tried EVA Business Class and enjoyed the onboard experience. Not sure about their econ and prem econ classes. Bear in mind that their prem econ seats don't offer a leg rest (except bulkhead seats which are reserved for babies).
I highly recommend Japan Airlines, which I flew in March 2023 from Tokyo to Bangkok. Super pleasant, clean, and spacious.
Thank you everyone!
Maybe we'll unknowingly cross paths in Vietnam. :) Enjoy!
It looks like Eva Air is a good choice for you.
I concur with what has been said above. I've flown EVA within Asia and found the service excellent.
