EVA Air introduces digitised books and magazines throughout global network

Taiwan carrier EVA Air has introduced digitised books and magazines throughout its global network.

According to the airline, its new “EVA e-Library” service is now available for passengers, making EVA Air the first carrier in Taiwan to provide such a service.

EVA President, Clay Sun, said: “Climate change and environmental protection practices are a critical concern for all of us. EVA accelerated development of its digital reading services to not only expand in-flight reading material selections and boost COVID safety but also to protect our environment.

’We launched our EVA e-Library to meet the high standards our passengers expect from us and deliver another automated service, consistent with the contact-free check-in and limited-interaction boarding we have been piloting while COVID is upending the travel industry.”

International EVA Air and UNI Air passengers can download publication content to their own mobile devices from 48 hours before their flight until 24 hours after their scheduled departures. The content is based on each passenger’s infinity MileageLands card tier or cabin class, with Diamond Card frequent flyers being able to access as many as 20 different newspapers, magazines, books and periodicals, while business class passengers can choose from 10.

The EVA e-Library service has around 500 different publications in 31 languages, which cover a wide range of topics with regularly updated selections.
