On October 3, EVA Air became the latest long-haul passenger airline to serve Dallas/Fort Worth. It is the first time the Texas hub, which is the world’s third-busiest airport by flights, has had nonstop Taipei service. That’s not surprising. With fewer than 27,000 round-trip passengers a year, the existing local market is relatively small. Of course, it’ll target passengers transiting to multiple cities in East and Southeast Asia.
