Hi

I'm going to Saigon in September for 14-20 days to see Thi. The last time I flew it was on United. Now United's flights are more expensive so I've been looking for a low cost flight. I've found EVA. I'm not familiar with them. Their coach flight is about $100 less then United. Since I'm in LA. the cheapest Untied flight has me leaving LAX at 5am for San Francisco. There I wait until noon to fly to Hong Kong then to Saigon. EVA flight leaves LAX at 1am with a stop in Taipei then Saigon. The total travel time is shorter on EVA. Has any VJs flown this airline? Or any other ideas of how to get best coach flight to Saigon from LA?


Thanks!

I have flown EVA before and don't really have any problems with them. I'm going to be flying with them again in October. If you care about what kind of planes you fly on, EVA flights out of LAX use 777's. Regional flights are usually on Airbus A330 or 747 combined cargo flights. EVA air is owned by the Evergreen group, which is a large shipping company.

Flew Eva, Will flight again. Good airline, service A+. Price, competitive

I'm going with eva in a few weeks. They have mini tv's on the back of your seat, which is pretty cool. Watch your own movies, listen to music, change the channels, ect.

Personal Entertainment system seems to be equiped on most 777.

Thanks all for your input. I did some internet searches and found mostly favorable comments. But most of them weren't to Saigon . I'm glad to know that it's a good airline and VJs like it enough to use often. It looks like that how I'm going to fly to Saigon. Thanks again.

I've flown China Airlines (now a Delta codeshare trip) originating both from San Francisco and LAX through Taipei. Great service, short layovers, prices competitive (900's r/t from LA or SFO). 747's to Taipei, 747's or A340's to Saigon.

I travel a lot so the idea of getting the miles in my Delta account is appealing. The fare is essentially the same booking through China or Delta.
