EVA Air, Taiwan's leading independent airline and a Star Alliance member, maintains comprehensive baggage allowance policies designed to serve its premium service standards. Known for its Hello Kitty themed flights and award-winning service, EVA Air operates an extensive network connecting Asia with North America and Europe. This complete guide covers everything you need to know about EVA Air's baggage policies for 2025.
EVA Air's carry-on baggage policy ensures passengers have adequate space for essential items during their flight. The airline enforces weight and size limits strictly to guarantee overhead bin availability for all passengers. Premium cabin passengers enjoy enhanced allowances with the ability to bring two pieces of hand luggage.
EVA Air operates on both weight and piece concepts depending on your destination. Routes to the Americas typically follow the piece concept, while Asian and European routes use the weight concept. Your EVA Air baggage allowance depends significantly on your route, fare type, and cabin class, with generous allowances across all service levels.
Understanding EVA Air's excess baggage fees helps you plan your packing effectively. The airline charges different rates based on your route, with fees calculated either by weight or by piece. Pre-purchasing additional baggage online provides substantial savings compared to airport rates.
