EVA Air Royal Loyal FLT BR15: LAX to Taipei

 

It was a short walk to the Gate from the Star Alliance lounge.





Our aircraft for this flight, a Boeing 777




We were greeted by the smiling EVA Air flight attendants and led to our seats...




My companion for this flight, my AP Royal Oak Offshore:




Complimentary Fiji water was provided:




A quick video of my experience on board flight BR15 via EVA Air Royal Laurel class:


I had seating in 2A which is a window seat.  The layout is a 1-2-1.  As you can see here, the center seats are spacious but still have enough privacy between the 2 seats:.  An interesting thing to note is that the seats a re also designed to be at and angle so that every seat faces a window without turning your head (they call it a herring bone positioning).  I thought it was a bit uncomfortable in such an arrangement but after a hour or so it was fine.




The lie flat seats in the Royal Laurel cabin have a multi position adjustment panel:




Each plane is different so I had to press all the buttons to figure out what does what:




The IFE touch screen controller and charging ports.  The shelf holding the bottled water was convenient to place my tolietry/glasses bag:




It was easy getting in and out of the seats, the armrest is completely flat which makes the seating appear more spacious:




With a press of the button the armrest can pop up:




A coat hanger:




More shelves to place things on the lower area of the seats.  Plenty of leg room when you stretch out:




As with other airplanes, water or juice is served before the plane takes off:




The slippers that they provide are really comfortable!




Once we are in the air, they hand out the overnight kits and pajamas:




EVA Air partners with Rimowa so the kit comes in this sturdy case:




The usual socks, blinders, ear plugs, comb, tooth paste, and tooth brush:




The pajama set was a top and bottom in a nice cloth pouch. I didn't use it but the materials were quite soft.




They also provide noise cancellation headsets.  'Thunder'?  I reminded me of my Howard Leight Thunder shooting ear muffs!




It comes with a set of hygenic disposable covers:




I usually don't like to use public earphones/headsets but the one onboard EVA has a weird 3 prong plug.  I didn;t have an adapter for my etymotics so I used theirs.  The sound cancellation worked well, acoustic quality was good.




The bathrooms were nice, slightly larger in size than a standard bathroom:




Harnn provides the skin care products for EVA Air:




Once we got to cruising altitude, the lights dim and the interior cabin turns to a soothing violet/purple color:
