I checked EVA and it doesn't seem like its available either on their website. But doesn't make sense that they would make all the other routes available to partner airlines but not that specific transpacific route. For example, jan 1 and 2 2026, SFO to TPE, SEA to TPE, ORD to TPE, JFK to TPE all show on aeroplan, Avianaca Lifemiles, and EVA. But when you search for the reverse, TPE to SFO, TPE to LAX, TPE to ORD, TPE to JFK, none of the direct award flights show on aeroplan, Avianaca. It states Waiting on EVA but I find it weird how EVA is already stating its "waiting" when the flight is made available to book. I will keep checking to see if they eventually open it up or not.
