EVA Air introducing speed dating flights to nowhere
Taiwan’s EVA Air, one of the first carriers to launch flights to nowhere, has dreamed up a new concept – catering to singletons looking for love.
It will operate three festive flights to nowhere on Christmas Day, New Year’s Eve, and New Year’s Day with in-flight speed dating.
To take part, customers must be aged 28-38 for males and 24-35 for females, be single and a resident of Taiwan.
They must also be degree-educated, according to event organiser, Mobius International which has partnered with the airline.
The ‘Fly! When Love Is Flying in the Sky’ networking event is priced at TW$8,388 ($290), and includes a hot meal.
The meal consists of a candlelight dinner for the New Year’s Eve night flight, and breakfast for the early morning New Year’s Day flight.
Mobius says it will comprise three hours of flight time and two hours of ‘romantic friendship’
