BR23 SEA-TPE cancelled after March 2018 ?
I had booked a couple of award seats which got cancelled. Does anyone know if this is seasonal or perm ?:mad:

Totally predictable.

now it also cancels flight BR23/24 for the whole W17... except some holiday flights where there is demand
|
Anybody have any insights what other routes have been pulled from Taiwan to North America?

Other than that, capacity reductions for ORD and IAH and that is it. Capacity increase for SFO though! |
I am almost glad to see the daytime Seattle flight disappear. I would definitely not have wanted to see EVA discovering the market for such a flight and "helpfully" eliminating the nighttime flight in favor of the more "convenient" daytime flight. (Something like this actually happened with Asiana -- my first experience ex. Seattle was a nighttime flight. Eventually they changed to a daytime flight instead.)

EVA and CI seem to do better with nighttime flights but aircraft utilization wise, it is a terrible schedule.

Why? It puts the plane in TPE in time to handle an early morning flight back to NA or onward to Asia.
Its ok for IAH, YYZ, and JFK but really bad for west coast. |

I don’t understand why you think a daytime flight is not convenient. I’ve taken the flight several times and the timing worked out very well. I’d much rather not have to go to the airport at midnight.

It's not great if you're connecting to another Asian city.
I personally can't stand a westbound redeye, and I'm not alone. |

Seems perfectly fine for other airlines - for example NH departs daytime, arrives NRT in the mid afternoon with plenty of time to connect onwards around dinner time. I need to arrive in the evening so I can get to sleep and be back to normal (no jetlag) the following morning.

I personally can't stand a westbound redeye, and I'm not alone. I also know plenty of people who don't like westbound day flights, nor do they like arriving so late at night. People deal with jetlag differently, but on westbound TPAC flights you'll have to force yourself to stay awake at some point - arriving at the crack of dawn and pulling through the day, or onboard the connecting flight after a daytime departure from North America. |
