5-Star Service from the Ground Up

Evergreen Group Chairman and Founder Dr. Chang Yung-Fa established EVA Airways in 1989, taking the respected transportation heritage and tradition of quality service of sister company and container-shipping leader Evergreen Line into the skies. He ordered 26 brand-new aircraft and set high standards for quality service and safety.

Building on this commitment to quality service and safety for more than 30 years, EVA is now rated as a 5-Star Airline by international quality rating organization SKYTRAX. This prestigious rating elevates EVA into the ranks of the world’s best airlines.

EVA is also a Star Alliance member. Through Star Alliance, we give passengers access to a vast network of over 1300 destinations in more than 190 countries and seamless global services. We offer geographic advantages within Asia from our centrally located hub at Taoyuan International Airport in Taiwan as an added benefit.

Wings Around the World

We had lofty goals when EVA made its maiden flight on July 1, 1991. Today, we serve a global network that connects Asia and Mainland China to Europe, North America and Oceania and links more than 60 major business and tourist destinations. We fly to every region of Mainland China and extend passenger and cargo services worldwide by code-sharing flights with other leading airlines.

EVA Air utilizes Flight Operations Risk Assessment System (FORAS) to perform our risk assessment prior to every flight. FORAS automatically retrieves data which include crew information, weather information, airport NAVAIDS, aircraft MEL, etc. FORAS will prepare a risk assessment report 2.5 hours before the flight departure. When flight crew report to their flight duty, they can comprehend the risks during departure, approach & landing via iPad Portable Electronic Flight Bag. Also, they will obtain safety reminders on crew operation, aircraft condition, exterior environment, etc. With FORAS, we are able to increase flight crew’s situation awareness and help them efficiently manage the operational risk.
