But, I can understand wanting more certainty for a trip you’ve planned for so long.
Thanks. I'm on BR025 and didn't realize BR003 was also going 30 min earlier. So that makes me feel a bit better. Are you suggesting that perhaps a strike wouldn't affect both flights? I get that it may be conjecture.

May I ask what you mean by secured and flown only by EVA? You are suggesting that a strike wouldn't affect this SEA-TPE route?
Is there any more news on possibility or probability of a strike? English language news is so sparse.
For the time being I've not modified any reservations. My preferred alternatives at the moment (in the event that I know about an actual strike far enough in advance) are CX SEA-HKG-BKK (leaving a day early since the don't fly on 6/22) or crossing the border to take CI YVR-TPE-BKK.
