Prelude: This trip is booked for 2/3 - 2/17 this year (2016)
A few reasons this will be a special trip:
1.Becki and Larry are going to meet us there for 7-10 days so that will be exciting!
2. Royal Laurel Class: Second is that we've gone all in and booked the flight (on the way there) in First Class!
(EVA Air has a new non-stop flight Houston to Taipei since summer 2015 - but its one of the top longest flights in the world at 16.5 hours!)
3. Hello Kitty: Also the plane from IAH to TPE on Eva is one of their Hello Kitty fleet! "Shining Star plane" haha should be fun
