Unusual EVA Airways promo - Buy 1 ticket from Vancouver to Taiwan, get 1 free from Toronto



EVA Airways is offering a really unusual promotion.

If you buy one roundtrip ticket from Vancouver to Taiwan, they'll throw in a second ticket for free, departing from Toronto.

So, this promo would only be useful for someone from Vancouver, who has a friend or family member in Toronto that wants to meet up with them in Taipei, Taiwan.

You would depart from Vancouver and fly non-stop to Taipei, Taiwan.

Your friend or family member living in Toronto would depart from Toronto and also fly non-stop to Taipei, Taiwan.

You would not be on the same flights.

IF the above scenario works for you, it could potentially be a pretty great deal for a non-stop flight to Taiwan on one of the top airlines in the world.

Details of the buy-1-get-1-free EVA Air promo

Details on this promo are kind of hard to come by, but here's what I *think* the details are:

- Purchase a roundtrip ticket from Vancouver to Taipei, Taiwan (TPE) and receive a second ticket for free, departing from Toronto (YYZ).

- Ticket purchase must be made before March 31st, the end of this month.

- Travel must be for sometime between August 15th and November 30th, 2017.

- It can be any cabin class (although both tickets must be in the same class)

- To purchase this promo, you must buy it from an authorized travel agency for EVA Airways.

Lion Travel in Richmond, BC is one travel agency that appears to at least be aware of this promo, according to their Facebook page. Their phone number is (604) 231-7331.

I'm assuming almost any travel agency should be able to book this, but you may want to try ones that specialize in travel to Asia.

Update 3/23 - I've heard from people who have said that Lion Travel is only offering Premium Economy fares for this deal, and their lowest prices are around $1200 CAD roundtrip.

However, there appears to be another Richmond, BC agency that is offering the Economy fares for $663 CAD roundtrip.

The agency is Carrie Travel. You can find their Facebook page here. Their phone number is 604-231-0580.

Here is one of their ads:



What I'm not sure about

*If* it's based on current prices from EVAAir.com - *and* the second ticket is completely free, then, theoretically the price for both tickets would be as low as $910 CAD including taxes, working out to $455 CAD roundtrip for each passenger.

Kayak search: Vancouver to Taipei, Taiwan (select EVA Air only on the left hand side)

I have yet to confirm that it's actually possible to obtain a price this low.

(Update: As noted in the update above, the cheapest I've seen agencies offer for this deal is $663 CAD roundtrip)
