I don't believe it. Eva Air price

[Lancashirelad 0]

Seen you guys raving about Eva Air Ever Green Deluxe so thought I'd go check it out:

 

LHR - BKK - LHR

 

out: 3rd Feb. Rtn: 17th March

 

£3078 !!!!! gulp :crying

 

when there's cattle class fares available out of Manchester at under £400!

Ouch!

That’s insane pricing when you could fly Quantas Business Class nonstop for 2600 GB Pounds on those dates.

IMHO, it seems that the closer you get to the departure date the more the ED prices seem to increase, although I’ll defer to the Eva frequent flyers on this point.

You shouldn't have to pay more than £650 for a LHR-BKK-LHR flight.

 

Another site to try is ebookers

Do any of you guys know the best seat in Eva economy on the Combi? I am going out 6th Feb returning 27th Feb but OURS can only confirm economy with waitlist for Evergreen, so I maybe have to go steerage class.

I have looked at the seat plans for the 747 Combi, row 35 is bulkhead which probably means children and stiff neck looking at screen. Row 45 is exit row but is right next to toilets so a lot of people hanging around, doors banging, toilet flushing etc. Row 54 has only 2 seats each side and looks OK but it is next to the galley, call buzzers going off all the time but maybe best bet IF available.

 

It is the Chinese new year which doesn't help, plus I was going to use miles for the upgrade. As I said to C Tom trying to use your FF miles during busy time is probably not the best bet. I will check in early and hope that I can appeal to their better nature, should be OK to pay £18 for over 2 hours in the SAS lounge knocking back G&Ts.

 

During the flight I'll just have to think about all those LBFMs waiting in LOS.

Same airline over Easter £349.

 

But they have a chequered timekeeping record

Its always higher at Chinese New Year but that's a ridiculous price.

Find out when CNY ends and book a week after if you can.

Did you get that price from Eva or a bucket shop?

Just booked a return Evergreen Deluxe flight to go back to the UK for Easter.

Not too bad at 44,700 THB.

Was told economy was 8,000 THB cheaper.
