EVA Air to Introduce Taipei – Guam Link

Taiwanese carrier EVA Air is to inaugurate flights from its Taipei Taoyuan base to Guam. The route will initially start with a daytime rotation on June 18, but from June 21 the twice weekly service will operate with an overnight flight on the outbound leg and a morning return. EVA Air plans to utilise its Airbus A330-200s on the route, a market already served by China Airlines on a twice weekly basis.

In the past year an estimated 40,000 O&D passengers travelled between the two destinations, with numbers stable, increasing just 0.3 per cent last year after an 8.4 per cent growth over the previous 12 month period. Interestingly, yields have strengthened with average ticket prices increasing by 7.4 per cent to $509 each way in the past year.
