EVA Air is launching a new service between Taipei and Dallas-Fort Worth on October 3 this year, initially operating three weekly flights. The frequency will increase to five weekly flights starting November 18 and become daily from December 15, raising the total number of weekly flights between Taiwan and North America to 94. This gives EVA Air the greatest number of destinations and the most extensive flight network from Taiwan to North America. This new gateway expands EVA Air’s North American reach to nine passenger gateways, including Chicago, Houston, Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, Seattle, Toronto, and Vancouver. The new gateway also makes EVA Air the only airline in Asia operating two destinations in Texas: Houston and Dallas-Fort Worth. Tickets are available now at www.evaair.com.

“EVA Air has been operating cargo service to and from Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport since 1998. Now, we are seeing strong passenger demand for this route due to the influx of numerous companies in recent years and strong economic and population growth. Dallas-Fort Worth has become one of Texas’ economic and commercial centers,” said EVA Air President Clay Sun. “The opening of the direct passenger flight to Dallas-Fort Worth makes us the only airline in Asia to operate two routes to Texas. As the third largest airport in the world in terms of passenger traffic and transfer to major cities in the United States, Central and South America, having service in this market creates more convenience for our passengers.”

The airline will serve the route using Boeing 787-9 aircraft, featuring Royal Laurel Class, Economy Class, and the new fourth-generation Premium Economy Class.

After the launch of the new route, passengers departing from Dallas Fort Worth International Airport will have a direct early-morning connection to Taoyuan International Airport, with easy transfers to any of EVA Air’s Asian destinations. With this flight network in place, EVA Air anticipates gradually attracting more passengers from North America to its efficient main hub in Taiwan for connecting flights, further enhancing EVA Air’s operations. From the East Coast to the West Coast, EVA Air’s diverse routes and frequent flight services will extend to more than 100 inland cities in the United States and Canada. This expansion will meet the needs of different customer groups, making travel arrangements more convenient and flexible for passengers.
