I would've advised you to book earlier but its too late! BR and CI both raised there prices by 12% after Jan 15th! The airport fees are now double what they were before and the fuel surcharge has gone up per pax.

My TA is excellent in this sense, she quoted me the lowest PE fare, so not concerned.

no. You can buy wifi for a cheaper rate if you buy prior to your flight.

Yea, I believe you save 10% by pre-purchasing.

Any recent ride reports on YHZ-TPE-YHZ?

It will be my first time on EVA, so I'm curious about both their hard and soft product in J class.

Bulkhead rows 1 and 8 have slightly(I'd say 1/2 inch to inch) larger ottoman areas but thats about it. All the seats are the same size.

Anyone have a thought on which of the following seat is best on United 777-300, 1A, 1L, 9A, 9L. I have claustrophobia and like as many windows as possible. Is there a difference between how many windows these seats have?

this thread is for EVA Air. You may want to go to the United Airlines section for the best advice.

NO, but you can pay the fare difference and upgrade, PE to J is about$3000
