If your flight number was BR 2xx, you receive Blanc de Blancs. If your flight number is a 2 digit number, then you get the longhaul champagne as the flight continues onto Europe. Do let us know if this is not the case anymore.

What Rimowa? What Krug? BR68 LHR-BKK on 5 Sep had no Krug and no Rimowa case. Maybe they are on an economy drive.

Someone hasn't been paying attention here.

You will get the Rimowa on the return leg if you are on BR67 back to London but alas no Krug although I think the VC is a pretty good drop

Just arrived on BR55 ORD-TPE and can confirm they’ve switched to Veuve La Grand Dame Rose.

Is there amenity kit only for long haul?
Any for short haul such as TPE-HKG?

None. Kits are only provided on flights to Europe, North America, and Oceania.

I heard from someone who knows quite a bit about EVA that Krug Rose is not served anymore on any route, and it has been removed system-wide.
All long-haul Hello Kitty flights get VC Rose instead now.
How unfortunate...maybe Krug Rose was just too expensive for EVA?

Official Press Release for the change from Krug Rose to VC Rose:
Veuve Clicquot La Grande Dame Rosé 2006 - EVA Air | Global

TPE-JFK reportedly still has the limited-edition Krug being served.

Does this mean long haul TPE inbound flights receive no amenity kit at all? Or a non-Rimowa kit? Are inbound flights short-changed on anything else, like pajamas, etc?
