I'm Taiwanese living in Seattle. In the past 10 years or so, the only direct flight from Seattle to Taipei is run by EVA. This year we will see several airliners join EVA to fly this line, they are China Airlines (don't be mistaken, this is actually a Taiwanese airliner, used to be the flag carrier), Delta, and Starlux. So happy to see this development!

I am a frequent flyer to/from Taipei and also a Delta frequent flyer. I used to do regular connection flights through NRT. I am very sure they will pull this SEA-TPE route and this will be proven as not profitable for Delta. United is the bottom feeder price leader with EVA and Starlux taking the top end spots. China and Delta take up the mid-segment. All 5 will battle it out with pricing and the first one to fall will be Delta.

That's a hard recommendation to make. I travel to Taiwan regularly for my job and my family is very very uneasy about it, especially between now and the next US election. Taiwanese are strong and resilient, but Taiwan suffers from multiple threats and issues... You've got guaranteed earthquakes and typhoons on a regular basis, on top of the geopolitical tensions. I think I only missed 2 typhoons but caught all other recent disasters during my visits, and one never get used to them. On an average good day, most of the Taiwan is super hot and humid, so it's only nice during the winter for people that come from milder weather - 70deg F is considered freezing cold by most Taiwanese. That said, if you do visit and do get deep into the society, you will find a rude awakening that not all Taiwanese are against unification with China and that number is quite large.
@RandomStuff-zw7uh
Ай бұрын
@_w_w_ that is because you are going there for your job. Realistically, a tourist would choose a non-typhoon season for better weather and easier sight-seeing. The geopolitical risk is completely overblown. It exists, but there is always risk no matter where you go. Earthquakes are more concerning, but people go to Japan all the time...
@_w_w_
Ай бұрын
@@RandomStuff-zw7uh That's a cop-out and uninformed response. If you try to not visit during those "risky seasons" then when do you go? What time of the year that's left and considered OK/safe/productive enough to go? Taiwan has exposures to earthquakes, floods, landslides, debris flows, and land subsidence year round.... Using Japan as comparison shows your lack of knowledge in this area. Japan also has its risk to natural disasters of which earthquake is the main one. It has a lot less other risk factors than Taiwan. In addition, Japan actually has 4 seasons so you get to see Japan 4 different ways, whereas Taiwan just one season - hot and humid, minus the 3 or 4 weeks of the year during which you actually won't sweat when you are out walking or playing tourist. Just this last April, I happened to be there during the 7.4 quake. Several young ladies were visiting from Korea and staying at the same hotel I was. They were so distraught, I felt so bad that I had to stay with them to calm them down. I mentioned to them earthquake is common in Taiwan and everything will be OK. They were shocked Taiwan has earthquakes and vow never to visit again... Taiwan is a beautiful place but the amount of natural disaster, compounded with recent elevated geopolitical tensions means it's a place to avoid if you want to spend your vacation money wisely.

Back in the 90s, Delta established a new Pacific hub in Portland, Oregon. They had purchased a fleet of new MD-11s for long-range Pacific flights. During that time, Delta flew non-stop to Tokyo, Nagoya, Seoul, and Taipei from Portland, as well as Hong Kong from LAX. Bangkok was either one-stop or two-stop service. Connecting non-stop MD-11, L1011 and 767 flights connected their major US hubs with their Pacific network via Portland. All flights offered First Class, Business Class and Economy. This was all before the Northwest merger and Delta struggled to compete with United, Northwest and the Asian carriers even after all of this effort.

True! I remember those days of PDX as transpacific network. Anyways, friends in Atlanta is telling me they are already discussing about potentially cancelling this SEA-TPE route, which isn't surprising. Delta can compete with United but not with EVA, China and especially Starlux. If Delta is smart, terminate codeshare with CI and starve them of domestic connections out of SEA and it will probably push CI out of this city. Starlux will stay because of AS agreement. SEA does not need that many flights to TPE - this is not sustainable.

The normal service isn’t to serve it all on one tray, it’s supposed to come in courses. The crew was probably briefed by the captain that they are anticipating turbulence at the time they are supposed to start service, so rather than delaying the service the crew probably made the decision to serve it all at once for safety reasons. Weather the turbulence happened that way or not, the crew will always make safety the priority and listen to the captain’s instruction.

Then in the early 90's, I saw Delta will be the third American airline flying Taipei. I also saw news that they cannot compete with established Northwestern and consider dropping the route.

Hi Patrick, thank you for another unique and awesome flight report. Running Out of Choice for both meals and especially on a Inaugural flight was totally Flaw and Unacceptable. If this happened in Singapore Airlines, passengers will immediately feedback and usually they will receive an Apology Letter and Compensation. Usually Singapore Airlines will never allow Running out of meal choices to happen and all this also depends on the arrangement with the local catering suppliers.

Totally agree. Most airlines make sure that the inaugurals go flawlessly. United pulls the plane out of service at least a day in advance to fix any big issues. Meanwhile delta with a lack of meals and no WiFi was a big disappointment

Delta has very good planes and seats, but the problem is about their in-flight service, which still cannot beat any of good airlines in Asia like Cathay Pacific, Starlux, Eva, JAL and ANA. The funny part is they have beers from China instead of Taiwan, that's crazy. Taiwan has very good beers (it called: Taiwan Beer, Chinese: 台灣啤酒) and they should put that on that flight.

Very TACKY, no pajamas and everything to eat on one tray, also understand Delta fares are very high? NWA’s service in First/Business service was wonderful

Definitely doesn't even compare to the services offered by the Asian carriers on the same route. EVA, Starlux, and China Airlines all have some of the world's best products

This is actually not completely true. “Delta” used to fly to Taipei all the time….as Northwest. Back in the 1980s I flew Northwest Airlines to Taipei a lot. Since then Northwest was bought up by Delta. So in a roundabout way, Delta has flown to Taipei. Also, Seattle was Northwest’s hub.

There’s a lot of ignorance in today’s vloggers of the contributions of Northwest to Asia travel and the basis of what Delta is today, especially the Airbus fleet.

It sucks. They do offer a pre-order which is nice, but still sucks when they run out of your selection

6:23, Nice, I wish all airlines, Airbus A330-900neo has air vent. But on my flight is weird, but good and okay flight. At the end of May, I flew Cebu Pacific, Airbus A330-900neo for the 1st time from Narita to Manila, there is no air vent, flight is 80 to 85% full, flight is good and okay, 4 hours, when I enter the plane from door 1, row 1 and 14 is missing a window and I was surprised and shocked that even though the passenger have a window seat, it's unlucky. But my seat is 14F, a aisle seat on the middle right and last row at the front cabin behind door 2. Unfortunately, no pillow and blanket (even on a 8 to 9 hour flight to Australia and Dubai) headrest, no universal power outlet (only USB, which is appreciated and good to charge my tablet) no air vent and the lavatory has no baby changing table (I use the lavatory at the front behind the cockpit) and soap to wash hand.

I’ve had a couple United flights recently where they do the second meal service starting in the back in order to give those passengers the first choice, especially since they paid the same amount
