mudcat Posted March 26, 2020 Share Posted March 26, 2020 (edited) Our April 23rd flight back to San Francisco was cancelled on March 19th. We filed for our refund on the 20th and the full credit for the flight (including taxes and fees) hit my wife's credit card on the 24th. EVA is a great airline - wonderful to have a choice over UAL where they would have given one airline credit needing to be used within a year rather than cash (plus EVA still credits miles by mileage and not dollars spent). Edited March 26, 2020 by mudcat left out form of credit by UAL 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glad you got you money back but how are you going to get to SF now ? I am facing the same possibility with Eva to Seattle on the 4th of May Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is why I answered it the way I did. NEWS EVA Air will suspend all international transit services via Taiwan starting from 00:00 Taipei Standard Time (GMT+8) on March 24 (Tuesday) until April 7. In compliance with the latest instruction by Taiwan’s Central Epidemic Command Center (CECC), EVA Air will suspend all international transit services via Taiwan starting from 00:00 Taipei Standard Time (GMT+8) on March 24 (Tuesday) until April 7. EVA is cooperating with all authorities concerned to stop the spread of COVID-19 (coronavirus) and will make necessary adjustments to its flight schedule based on the epidemic prevention policies and passenger demand. For the latest information of EVA's flight schedule and related rules of ticket change or refund, passengers can visit EVA’s Coronavirus disease 2019 website at https://www.evaair.com/en-global/emer/2019-nCoV.html.

tso310 Posted April 4, 2020 Author Share Posted April 4, 2020 I put the PR Chinese airlines up especially for their North American service. I will try and put US airline info up later today. I am back in the UK now so there is a time lag. Doug Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
