Eva Air - which aircraft seating plan?
I'm flying TPE - SFO on 6 April, on my ticket the aircraft is indicated as 77W.
I put the airline, flight number and date into Seatguru and was shown a seat map for 77W with 2-2-2 configuration. The Eve website indicates a 1-2-1 configuration.
Should I defer to the Eva seat map as being correct? I would rather choose an aisle seat than have to climb over someone else, unless I can be 'guaranteed' (irops etc aside) a single seat at the window.
Has anyone flown this route recently and pre-selected meals and can you please comment on the quality etc?
Thanks,
Rugr Grli

seat guru is outdated, trust eva's seatmap it is 1-2-1.
an easy way to verify is just check what seat number you have. The old configuration started from rows 6+. The new 1-2-1 starts from 1-7. so if your seat is anything under row 6 you can be sure it is the new configuration.

Meals were great however, when ordering pre-selected meals I had forgotten what I had ordered and had to take the FA's word that I did indeed ordered it.
I think you will enjoy the hard and soft product. They are my go-to product for *A in Asia as they are cheaper than SQ. I have not tried ANA or Asiana yet.

Thank you for the info
Thank you kmcbrid2 and justmexp.
I have to wait a bit longer before ordering the meals, but the existing menu looks like it has some reasonable options.
My seat is 2k.
Is there any 'better' side of the aircraft in terms of view etc?
