11 Airlines Where Upgrading to Business Class Is Surprisingly Affordable

Airline #9: EVA Air – Taiwanese Hospitality and Hard Product

Consistently ranked among the world's best airlines, Taiwan's EVA Air delivers an exceptional business class experience (Royal Laurel Class on most long-haul routes) that punches well above its often competitive price point. Expect lie-flat seats in a reverse herringbone layout, attentive service anticipating your needs, high-quality amenities, and impressive dining including acclaimed champagne selections. While not always the absolute cheapest, EVA frequently offers fares, especially originating in Asia or during promotional periods, that represent outstanding value for the top-tier quality and service provided, rivaling airlines with much higher price tags.
