I was so excited when the pink boarding pass with cute characters came through and I realized we’d be on this plane BUT,
gotta give you some real talk about this plane though…
The Hello Kitty plane and 6 total planes with Sanrio characters were from a collaboration that Eva Air did with Sanrio beginning in 2005. The specific plane we were on was reallllly old with not a lot of amenities and in general it just felt old and tired. 😅
I had seen some older TikToks of this plane and it showed it being totally decked out in Hello Kitty including the safety video, barf bags, and more. I was bummed to find the Hello Kitty stuff has since been scaled back HOWEVER it was still cute and a fun idea.
The boarding passes, headrests, flight attendant uniforms, snacks, cups, and utensils are still in theme but they have since changed out the safety video and taken away some of the other stuff from when it was originally launched over 20 years ago.
Overall, I was still excited to get to experience it and it was a very fun surprise to see the pink character boarding pass come through ☺️ but I wouldn’t go out of my way to take this plane (no, it doesn’t cost extra to fly on it but I would have been disappointed if I had paid extra for it.)
