EVA Air carry-on weight: Premium Economy does not receive two main cabin bags
The per-piece wording matters: a two-piece entitlement should not be treated as permission to put the combined weight into one heavy case. EVA provides a measurement unit at check-in or the boarding lounge to check a bag against its cabin requirements. Use the size and additional-item instructions on the airline’s carry-on page as well as the weight limit; meeting 7 kg alone does not settle whether a large bag fits the allowance. For an unfamiliar or expandable suitcase, record the packed outside measurements before heading to the airport. Ask staff to confirm any handover and return arrangement rather than assuming an over-limit cabin bag will be accepted without another charge.

EVA Air checked bags: Discount and Basic fares can have different piece counts
EVA Air’s fare-family table distinguishes the route as well as the fare. On its listed long-haul services, Economy Discount includes one 23 kg piece, while Economy Basic, Standard and Up include two. Within Asia, Economy Basic and Discount include one 23 kg piece; Standard and Up include two. The standard maximum total dimensions are 158 cm per piece, including handles and wheels. An EVABidDeal cabin upgrade does not add a free checked-baggage allowance. Separate tickets also keep their separate allowances, so neither an upgraded seat nor a through itinerary assembled from multiple tickets proves that an extra suitcase is included. Confirm the baggage line before calculating the number of paid extra pieces. Where a bag exceeds the permitted weight or size, use EVA’s excess-baggage rules rather than buying a standard extra piece and assuming the physical limits no longer apply.

EVA Air extra baggage: prepaid service excludes overweight and oversized pieces
EVA Air’s prepaid excess-baggage service is for eligible EVA electronic tickets whose numbers begin with 695 and flights operated by EVA Air. Purchase is available until four hours before the scheduled flight, subject to confirmation and availability. The prepaid product covers standard additional pieces; it does not cover overweight or oversized baggage, pets or sports equipment. The prepaid piece must remain within 158 cm total dimensions and the weight limit for the booking class: 23 kg for Economy or Premium Economy, and 32 kg for the listed Business-class products. EVA also distinguishes the currency calculation for tickets initially departing Canada from other origins. Compare the final quote for your ticket instead of converting a search-result amount yourself. If you are paying to take a heavy suitcase rather than another standard piece, the airport excess category may be the relevant service.

EVA Air delayed baggage: return the inventory form and do not wait to claim
Report a missing checked bag to EVA Air’s local airport office or handling agent immediately. For a journey involving more than one airline, EVA directs passengers to the last carrier flown to the destination. Keep the file reference and use the tracing service with your last name. If the bag remains missing after five days, EVA sends a baggage claim/inventory form; return it promptly to support both the search and assessment. EVA’s published claims page states a 21-day filing period for delayed or wholly missing baggage, counted from the day after the bag was scheduled to arrive. Do not wait for the suitcase to be found before contacting EVA about the claim. That wording describes the carrier’s stated procedure, not a universal legal deadline for every international journey. Keep purchase evidence, a contents list and receipts for claimed expenses, and obtain written clarification where the airline’s deadline or response does not match your circumstances.
