EVA Air has added a new U.S. destination to its route network.

In just under a year from now, the Taipei-based carrier will add nonstop service from Taipei (TPE) to Dallas Fort Worth (DFW).

Let’s explore this interesting route addition in some more detail.

EVA Air Chooses Dallas as Next U.S. Destination

As flagged by Ishrion on X, Taiwanese carrier EVA has scheduled to start nonstop service between Taipei and Dallas Fort Worth (DFW) on November 3, 2025.

As DFW is an American Airlines hub and Oneworld airline focus airport, this is a curious addition to the Star Alliance member airline’s route network. That said, EVA also chose New York (JFK) rather than the neighboring United and Star Alliance hub at Newark (EWR).

When considering EVA already flies to close-by Houston (IAH), a United hub and Star Alliance focus airport, the choice of Dallas becomes even more questionable.

The airline only flies to 6 cities in the U.S., so why fly to 2 airports so close together?

Speculation around the decision has led some to the hypothesis that EVA wants to deter fellow Taipei-based carrier Starlux from adding Dallas to its rapidly expanding international route network.

As it stands, EVA would have the monopoly on the route as the only airline to operate service between the 2 cities.

Specific information regarding the aircraft type and schedule for the route is yet to be revealed.

At the time of writing, EVA operates 8 nonstop services to North America, 6 of which are in the U.S. and 2 in Canada.

The airline operates a mixture of aircraft on its U.S. routes. You’ll most likely find yourself on one of its 33 Boeing 777-300 jets. However, on its route from Taipei to Seattle (SEA), you’ll enjoy its newer Boeing 787-10 Dreamliners which feature the airline’s best business class product.

Hot Tip:

EVA Air is a great option to consider when planning a trip from the U.S. to Taiwan — and you can redeem points instead of paying cash for business class, too!
