Eva Air eyes new US destinations - Boston, Dallas, and Washington

Taiwanese carrier, Eva Air recently celebrated its Airbus Order for 33 planes including 18 A350-1000 and 15 A321neo, which will help unlock new US destinations such as Dallas Fort Worth (DFW), Boston Logan (BOS), and Washington Dulles (IAD). Star Alliance member carrier currently serves around 48 international destinations across Asia Pacific, Europe, and North America. The majority of these destinations are in China and Japan. The delivery of the new Airbus A350-1000s will begin in the first quarter of 2027. General Manager Sun Jiaming announced these aircraft will strengthen the carrier’s long-haul operations, particularly on North American routes. Airbus Commercial Aircraft CEO Christian Scherer highlighted the A350-1000’s superior position in long-haul aviation. The aircraft offers unmatched passenger comfort and environmental performance in its class, enabling EVA Air to elevate its international operations. EVA Air aims to expand its North American presence by launching a new destination in its 2025 winter schedule, selecting from Boston, Washington, D.C., or Dallas and possibly of launching all three in phases. Dallas presents operational advantages by minimizing Russian airspace usage compared to northeastern destinations.<br/>
