EVA Air Inaugurates Dallas-Fort Worth to Taipei Route
On October 3, 2025, EVA Air marked a major milestone with the launch of its new nonstop route between Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport (DFW) and Taipei Taoyuan International Airport (TPE). The event was celebrated with a special inaugural ceremony that featured notable personalities, including EVA Air President Clay Sun and Ambassador Alexander Tah-Ray Yui from the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office in the U.S. The gathering included other distinguished guests, highlighting the significance of this new air service.
During the ceremony, President Clay Sun expressed his enthusiasm for the new route, noting that it builds on nearly three decades of collaboration between EVA Air and the Dallas-Fort Worth area, initially starting with cargo operations in 1998. He emphasized that this robust partnership has paved the way for a direct, reliable, and convenient service for passengers traveling between these two significant regions.
The initial schedule for the DFW-TPE route includes three weekly flights, which will increase to five by mid-November and eventually reach a daily service by the end of 2025. This expansion will allow EVA Air to connect travelers to nine gateways in North America with a total of 94 weekly flights to Taiwan—more than any other Taiwanese airline. This extensive network affords passengers seamless connections across Asia without the hassle of additional security screenings.
To celebrate the launch, EVA Air organized an evening filled with interactive activities and exclusive experiences at the airport. Attendees had a chance to win limited-edition EVA Air merchandise, and all travelers on the inaugural flight received specially prepared gifts to commemorate the occasion. The excitement was palpable as attendees, including DFW's Executive Vice President Ken Buchanan and Mayor Pro Tem Carlos Flores of Fort Worth, shared their thoughts on the positive impact this route would have on the local economy and community.
The DFW-TPE route will be serviced by the state-of-the-art Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner, featuring EVA Air's newly introduced Premium Economy Class. This marks the debut of the fourth-generation Premium Economy product in the U.S., equipped with stylish amenity kits designed in partnership with HUNTER. Passengers in the Royal Laurel Class will enjoy complimentary amenities, including sleepwear and slippers from renowned brand Maison Kitsuné, enhancing the overall passenger experience.
Dallas is one of the fastest-growing cities in Texas, heavily influenced by the increasing Asian American population and the relocation of major U.S. corporate HQs. Many Taiwanese electronics firms have set up operations locally, signifying the growing ties between the regions. As a result, EVA Air's new route is set to enhance travel for both business and leisure tourists, reinforcing Dallas as a vital link between the U.S. and Asia.
EVA Air's commitment to excellence in passenger service has earned it numerous accolades, including the prestigious 5-Star Airline rating by SKYTRAX for ten consecutive years. With the addition of the DFW-TPE route, the airline continues to extend its North American network, bringing its total number of direct services to nine cities, including Los Angeles, San Francisco, New York, Houston, and more. This efficient connectivity and diverse routing options highlight EVA Air's dedication to providing an exceptional travel experience tailored to meet the demands of today's travelers.
