A few weeks ago EVA Air announced that they'll be discontinuing Hello Kitty service to Los Angeles as of October 27, 2014. That's kind of disappointing, given that they just launched Hello Kitty service to Los Angeles roughly a year ago.
For those of you not familiar with EVA Air's Hello Kitty service, they operate select flights with Hello Kitty themed aircraft. I've had the opportunity to fly this service on two occasions:
