The Taiwanese 航空機による 受託するd the 'best 賞与金 economy' トロフィー at the most 最近の ‘Oscars of 航空’ - the 年次の Skytrax World 航空機による Awards. Not only that but it was 指名するd the world’s ninth-best 航空機による.
Its 関係 to 賞与金 economy run 深い. EVA 空気/公表する is credited as the first 航空機による to 開始する,打ち上げる 賞与金 economy class, introducing the game-changing cabin to the skies in the 早期に 1990s.
In 実験(する)ing out this prize-winning service, I'm travelling with my partner from the 航空機による’s 中心, northern Taiwan’s Taoyuan International Airport, on a 3hr 25min flight to 売春婦 Chi Minh City, Vietnam.
Once we arrive at the airport, dread 始める,決めるs in at the sight of the enormous 列 for check-in. Thankfully, it's short-lived.

An EVA 空気/公表する 乗組員 member helpfully points me in the direction of the 指定するd section for 賞与金 economy check-in, where the 列 障壁s are 完全に 列-解放する/自由な. An attendant 速く checks us in and we’re on our way in under 10 minutes.
There's a かなりの price difference between economy and 賞与金 economy - an economy ticket starts at TWD 4,925 (£122/$156) for the 大勝する we’re 飛行機で行くing, while 賞与金 economy is more than 二塁打 that at TWD 13,052 (£324/$413). にもかかわらず the bump in price, 賞与金 economy 乗客s don't enjoy either lounge 接近 or 優先 搭乗, resulting in a なぎ in the 訴訟/進行s once we’re through 安全.
However, when we board the 計画(する) - a Boeing 777 - the 賞与金 economy ticket 証明するs its 価値(がある).
Cream curtains separate the 64-seat 賞与金 economy cabin from th e 支援する of the 計画(する). With a design finish 工夫するd by Teague, it’s a tasteful cocoon 相殺する by soft lighting and a coffee-トンd colour palette.

Tan and tangerine seats with adjustable headrests are laid out in eight 列/漕ぐ/騒動s in a 2-4-2 layout. My window seat, 22K, is exceptionally comfortable, with a generous seating space 手段ing 38in (97cm) long and 19.5in (50cm) wide. My 6ft 1in partner says that he feels he has ‘二塁打 the space’ he 普通は enjoys in economy class. Even though the man in 前線 of me reclines his seat for the whole flight, I never feel cramped.
An adjustable footrest 減少(する)s 負かす/撃墜する from the seat in 前線. A little (米)棚上げする/(英)提議する for drinks sits between seats, while larger (米)棚上げする/(英)提議するs are hidden away in armrests. There are USB sockets and Wi-Fi, which is slow, but 解放する/自由な for 30 minutes.
