The Long-Haul Carrier Now Flying Washington Dulles' Most-Stretched Route At 7,800 Miles

EVA Air expanded its North American network with a new nonstop service between Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD) and Taipei Taoyuan International Airport (TPE), marking a notable shift in US-Taiwan travel connectivity.

The new route connects IAD to TPE without intermediate stops, broadening non-stop options for passengers traveling between the United States and Taiwan.

The service began on June 26, 2026, aligning with EVA Air’s broader effort to increase direct transpacific flights from the East Coast.

This development comes after EVA Air had already started non-stop operations to Taiwan earlier in the year, signaling a ramp-up in their long-haul schedule.

Prior to this change, much of the non-stop connectivity between Taiwan and the US had been concentrated along the West Coast; the IAD-TPE route represents the long-haul carrier’s extended reach from the East Coast.
