On June 21 2019, EVA AIR received the first Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner. This is the first in a series of 20, which will arrive in the Taiwanese carrier fleet.
The new 787-10 aircraft will be used on crowded flights from Asia. They will join the 4 787-9 aircraft, which are in the EVA AIR fleet. A great time for EVA AIR, which celebrates 30 for years of flights.
787 Dreamliner aircraft are flagships in the EVA AIR fleet. These have contributed to operational growth on long-haul and congested routes in Asia-Pacific.
