facorsig, you are right about stops and I do love SQ. EVA actually has fewer stops for me. With the exception of Tokyo and Beijing, from IAH, I am looking at two or more stops with UA or NW and 1 stop with EVA. I actually prefer EVA food over NW food. May be it is also because I like Chinese food. I think Evergreen Deluxe (business class without the services) and coach classes are every good value. My EVA coach tickets were 40% less than NW and less than 50% of CO. Next time, I will get the Evergreen Class for ~$300 more RT. I have only flown business with UA, so I can't compare. The coach class service was better than NW and I think there is a couple of inches more leg room than NW.
Some how SQ did not show up as an option for TPE. Also, SQ and UA do not generate One Pass EQM, their prices have to be really good for me to fly them.
