SFO is not flagship and there is so much business on there they can just blow it off.

ORD is La Grande Dame Rose 2006 which is in the same ballpark quality/price-wise as the Krug 2004.

Are there specific routes BR gives out the new Carmona red Rimowa kits? I'm flying TPE-ORD in J later this year and cuirious if it's on that route even though it's a Hello Kitty flight.

All ex-TPE long hauls get them, so you’ll get it as long as there isn’t a change before then.

All ex-TPE long hauls get Rimowa kits, or all ex-TPE long hauls get the Crimson red kits specifically. Sorry, wasn't sure what you meant in your reply?

Thanks. The only reason I asked is that I watched a trip report for TPE-ORD that the Hello Kitty flights get a special 'California Blue' Rimowa kit that's different than their normal flights. Is this no the case?

I’ll def keep an eye on this thread as my flight isn’t for a few more months and another change could happen. Thanks for letting me know this thread tracks the changes!

Flying ex-IAH this week- what are the chances there would be a Rimowa kit still on the plane from the TPE-IAH leg and that a FA would let me trade for one. Even worth asking? I'm continuing onto Tokyo from Taipei, and I don't know if I'll ever have the chance to fly EVA out of TPE.
