  • WELCOME to Wandering Scholar, a 20+ years old frequent flyer from Shanghai
    To all my subscribers, it is my pleasure to welcome you back !
    Today I am back aboard Asia’s most exquisite carrier - EVA’s Royal Laurel Class as I embark on my longest flight since COVID-19. My journey with EVA today takes me from Hong Kong to Munich via Taipei on the airline’s latest Boeing 787 Dreamliner aircraft.
    EVA’s 787 features a BMW designed business class seat that offers tremendous comfort for a 14 hours flight. As is always the case with EVA, the F&B program onboard is the absolute highlight - I had the best Japanese meal ever on a non-japanese carrier.

    Listening to your pretentious narration was the most fun I have had all day. You sound like an absurd imitation of Jacob Rees-Mogg without the Eton polish, of course. Bless your heart…I will bet in Hong Kong you’re quite the bon vivant.

    There is another lounge “The Garden” which is much higher quality than the one you went to, it is opposite to the one you went to(much more spacious, less people, better food, a bar with better booze and drinks)

    I enjoy watching your aviation videos on RUclips for your matchless presentation of the flight experiences in impeccable English. Your refined accent is impressive and most importantly the informative commentary right from the airport lounge to the food served on the aircraft edifies the viewers 😢with a scholarly touch justifying the title of your channel. Wishing you the best in life and thanks a lot for enabling us to vicariously enjoy your travels in the comfort of our homes.

    When a video opens with (paraphrasing here) "The charm of a '90's karaoke bar", I laugh out loud, smile, and think to myself, 'It's good to be home with #WonderingScholar." Sixteen minutes of quality escapism is highly underrated and I recommend to anyone passerby reading this -- follow now, dammit.
    Wonderful background music to accompany great narration. Your meals looked amazing thought I think the beef noodle was the highlight. Simple meals made with an amazing broth can't be beat.
    As always, your dedication and time given to providing a detailed quality video is always appreciated. Good to know your are well. Please stay safe in your travels.
    ps: Have you watched the Virgin America safety video? It's a great upbeat video/song and is on par with Tahitian Airlines for favourite safety video.

    Most enjoyable video. Judging by the onboard service EVA Air would seem one of the best. I actuallly travelled with EVA Air back in the early 1990s when this carrier first came to LGW. I took the fifth freedom flight LGW-VIE-BKK out in premium economy (EVA along with VS were the first to introduce this product) and returned J class BKK-VIE-LGW, I don't think the onboard cuisine back then was nearly as good as your experience TPE-MUC !

    Couldn't agree more with your review. I have flown VIE, MUC, LHR Royal class to TPE several times. Excellent food and beverage. BUT, horrible lounge in TPE I go to the Priority Pass instead and go to the food court for Taiwanese Beef Noodle Soup. I also thought of the same, why wouldn't BR revamp their disco themed lounge (the lounge in BKK is even more psychedelic!) and offer at least Taiwanese noodle soup. Great review.

    i flew EVA air 3 times in the same business class between vienna and taipei over last 10 months and i was not that impressed. wifi was not complimentary but for royal laurel travelers at those times, the price was $40. IFE is absolutely terrible with around 15 movies to pick from. Service was good, but as soon as the dinner was finished, there was little to not engagement from the crew if you were not asleep.

    I've flown them a couple of times and found them rather middle of the road. Not a bad experience in business but nor did it really stand out to me. And correct about that awful lounge. Made laugh the comment about 90's Karaoke. I hadn't thought of that when I was there but great description. Lounges are obviously not their thing.
