Just for info as people quite often ask. Just come through Heathrow for my Eva Air flight. At checking they were looking at my visa which is a retirement visa so no problem. But I suspect If you do not have a visa, of proof of onward travel you will be denied by Eva Air.
TLDR : Answer Summary
Travelers flying with Eva Air from Heathrow to Thailand have reported varying experiences regarding visa checks and proof of onward travel. While some expats have noted no issues when traveling with a retirement visa, others have experienced stringent checks that required them to provide documentation for onward travel. There appears to be a trend of increased scrutiny by airline staff since the end of COVID-19, with multiple users confirming they were asked for their visa details or onward tickets during check-in. Additionally, even with a retirement visa, travelers must ensure they have a re-entry permit to return to Thailand.
