Airline extends Premier League football club partnership

Taiwanese carrier Eva Air is to maintain a partnership with West Ham United for a sixth consecutive year.

The partnership began in 2018 and saw the carrier become the London Premier League side’s first official airline partner.

Daily return flights from the UK to Bangkok and Taipei have been promoted across West Ham’s international channels in addition to other initiatives to raise the airline’s profile in the UK and internationally.

Eva Air general manager, Sarah Wu said: “This collaboration has enabled us to increase awareness of our international flights, and we know that West Ham United’s recent success in the 2023 UEFA Europa Conference League will raise their profile even further, leading to more opportunities for us as their partner. 

“We look forward to the season ahead and congratulate the club on their success and thank them for their continued support of Eva Air.”

West Ham chief commercial officer Nathan Thompson added: “We are really pleased that our partnership with Eva Air continues to go from strength to strength.

“The airline has been a great supporter of the club and we are confident that we can maximise opportunities for them to promote their flights through our channels to new levels during the 2023-24 season.
