I tried to book with them in may but saw they were always cancelling and changing their flights so flew with KLM instead with no problems

I am travelling back with lufthansa next week from CM airport to Heathrow for 13k baht one way but book direct with the airline, its easier to change your itinerary etc 😀
Nick *******
The best 2 airlines to fly with at the moment if ur going bac to Heathrow are Swiss & KLM

Both still running to schedule. But book direct with airline not agency.

We always flew EVA Air due to price and a killer flight schedule from SFO.

My Wife was holding tickets to Bangkok on Jan 6th 2021 and Taipei closed the airport to "transit" passengers Jan 1st.

We had to scramble to find a new flight on the same date with United and Korean Air thru Seoul on the way in a nd JAL and United thru Japan on the way back. She was able to modify the COE and arrival time with the hotel.

It went from a $1050 ticket to a $1475 ticket.

I just booked to Bangkok on Sept. 30.

Due to the uncertainty of Taipei, I am avoiding it and transiting in Japan.

Are the cancellations because taiwan does not want people there or that Thailand will not allow them to land.

Transit via Taipei is now forbidden until at least July 12th. Direct flights from Taipei to Thailand are still flying. Direct flights to Taiwan are ok with the quarantine restrictions.

yikes. That would make the Phuket experiment even more difficult

Taiwan is in a Level 3 lockdown until July 12th, no transit allowed via Taipei. Probably will allow transit again by the middle of July. I think this is the third this has happened (maybe fourth) the first was in March 2020

My dad was meant to fly with them today - they didn’t even let him know his flight was cancelled! He was checking and got in touch with the company he booked with and they said ‘no flights until August’. He managed to get on a Thai Airways flight a few hours earlier and now he’s on his way!

After all the hassle of the paperwork that was the last thing he needed!

Their pricing is out of control at the moment. Singapore Airlines is far less and better.

Foreigners are currently banned from transiting through Taiwan. The flights booked by the OP may still be operating as scheduled, but EVA won't be allowed to carry him.
