Thanks to reader Ismael for pointing out that EVA award space is now bookable on united.com. That’s pretty exciting news given that I find the United website to be the single best place to search for Star Alliance award space. Beyond that it allows people to book EVA with United miles without paying the $25 phone ticketing fee.
For reasons on why this (and EVA in general) is awesome, see my previous posts — here, here, and here.

Thank you ThriftyTourist. I was just on United website and couldn't find any Eva award space; but found some yesterday. While I was looking yesterday, I did notice some routing issues on the site so hopefully that'll be fixed next week.
Thanks Thrifty Tourist. I was wondering what happened as I was able to find BR award on United yesterday, but disappeared last night. ANA's award engine can still show BR flight.
It looks like every Star Alliance pulled BR seats - even expertflyer does not show "Eva Air" anymore.
United has temporarily pulled all BR award redemptions due to a "small issue". Per United, the seats will be back online for redemption by the end of next week.
@ tp -- Well they release when the schedule first opens, and as far as I can tell progressively release more space as the departure date approaches. Haven't found a fixed schedule yet.
