On Thursday (August 28, 2025), EVA Air announced the launch of a new interline agreement with Southwest Airlines effective immediately.  This partnership now connects EVA Air passengers traveling to four key U.S. gateways, including Los Angeles (LAX), San Francisco (SFO), Seattle (SEA), and Chicago (ORD) to other cities across the U.S. with Southwest, including Denver, Las Vegas, Nashville, Tampa, Baltimore, and more.  Customers can now book a single itinerary including flights operated by both airlines, with coordinated ticketing and through-checked baggage service to their final destination. Travelers will also receive boarding passes for all segments of their journey at the first point of departure.


In Thursday’s announcement, EVA Air’s America Head Office’s Executive Vice President, Andrew Su, said,


“This partnership positions EVA Air for long-term growth in an evolving market by combining resources with Southwest Airlines.  Together, we’re streamlining operations, connecting with a broader range of travelers, and responding more swiftly to changing market needs.  Beyond simply adding flight options, we are dedicated to reimagining how we serve our passengers and providing travel experiences that are more personalized, more flexible, and thoughtfully designed around their needs.”


Also commenting on the new interline partnership, Southwest Airlines’ Chief Operating Officer, Andrew Watterson, said,


“Our relationship with EVA Air brings new opportunities for access between Asia and the United States through our unmatched domestic network.  We’re grateful for this new partnership and the additional dimension it brings to our ongoing work to bring more choice in travel experiences with global reach.”


Currently, EVA Air offers 89 weekly flights to major cities in the U.S. and Canada, making them the Taiwanese airline with the most destinations and frequent flights to North America.  By the end of the 2025, this will expand to 94 weekly flights.  Additionally, through their new partnership with Southwest Airlines, customers now have seamless access to over 100 cities across the United States.
