how do you search for EVA award seats? I tried signing up for EVA frequent flyer account but it keeps saying "Invalid Membership Number".

Here we go, the new Star Alliance family photo

SQ is missing though... unless that pilot is representing SQ? That would be kinda lame from SQ for not being able to send a Singapore Girl there...

They are now showing in the ANA award search engine!! But I don't see BR award flights on UA at this time.

Hopefully we will see them on the UA, AC, etc searches soon.

It's not on the UA website yet. I spoke to the *A desk at UA to get the award seat availability information for BR.

877-726-7282 is the direct number here in the US. I'm not sure about worldwide, unfortunately...

EVA Lounge at SFO

Anybody have any luck trying to access the EVA Lounge at SFO. It is being treated as a *A lounge, as I would assume it should.

Anyone know of a good way to make sure you're getting "Royal Laurel" vs. "Premium Laurel" on your flight? Are all JFK-TPE flights Royal at this point?

Seat Maps is easy way to tell

I'm almost certain it's on all long-haul 777 routes now, EXCEPT LHR
http://royallaurel.evaair.com/

so that's JFK, LAX, SFO, Toronto YYZ
Paris CDG, AMS
LHR will start at 7/5 and 100% after 7/25

巴黎:已於4/10全面改艙為皇璽桂冠艙。
阿姆斯特丹:已於5/7全面改艙為皇璽桂冠艙。
倫敦:預計7/5起陸續改艙,7/25後將全面使用皇璽桂冠艙。

Ahh ok great, I'm not planning to fly until next year and it'll be NYC-TPE so there is a 100% chance it'll be "royal" (i.e. the new/better seat). Thanks.

Wow, they are really generous. ^

LH, TG, NH all of them you have to fly F to get the Rimowa, with LH seems like you have to fly old F to get one, TG you can only get it on 380, NH only for flights into NRT.

Is BR give out Rimowa systemwide ? What's the minimum length in C to get it ?

Their website said Bvlgari products, but in the photo above doesn't look like Bvlgari at all, what brand is it ?

Rimowa started last week when it updated RL services. So, I guess one should expect it on long haul RL flights.

Obviously they are a little behind with updating their websites.
