premium economy

Hey AFF’ers - is it normal for seat selection on Y+ to be completely unavailable 4 weeks out from departure? I’m SG and just getting the window/aisle preference option with no option to pick anything. I’ve checked expertflyer and the whole Y+ cabin is either taken and the other half of the...

Singapore Airlines will start using an Airbus A350-900 with Premium Economy seating on its MEL-WLG route from 1 November. Interestingly, for KrisFlyer redemptions there is no price listed for Premium Economy award bookings on the SQ award chart for this route. You also cannot book Premium...

Hi, we're looking to travel from Sydney to Europe in Aug/Oct 2020. 2 adults, 2 children. What's the best way to register for premium economy sales alerts? We're flexible on dates, countries and airlines - my only requirement is to avoid economy getting there! Would love to try and find a deal...

Very disappointed on my recent flight with delta they refused to even put me on the comfort plus upgrade list. I requested at check in, at the lounge and at the gate. They seemed to have very limited awareness of the delta/virgin arrangements, which goes against my previous experience where...

I stumbled across what seems like a good deal on at the moment with Air China. Round-trip fares from Melbourne to Beijing in PREMIUM ECONOMY are available for $801.90 return, including all taxes. Books into "E" class. SYD-PEK is also available for $815.78 return in Premium Economy. I can see...

Travelling BNE - ADL in a few months with wife, 6mo baby and 2yr toddler. Considering upgrading to Economy X to make the journey a little more comfortable for all involved. Worth the $50/pp each way?

Has anybody had any experience with an online TA called Ypremium? I think they operate out of Adelaide. They may also operate as flatbeds.com.au.

Last week, my request to use points to upgrade from Economy to Premium was granted, so I took my first PE flight. Overall, it was very good, and to anyone wondering if upgrading to PE is "worth it", I would say Yes. The extra comfort allowed a little more sleep, with the result being that the...

I am a Qantas Platinum member and I am travelling Singapore to London on BA Premium Economy tickets purchased with points with my husband and 14 and 10 year old children. Can I access the Qantas Lounge in Singapore with 1 guest and two children?

Hi All, I'm booked on SYD-LAX via AKL on AirNZ - 777 PE There doesn't seem to be too many flight reviews of this product so i'm hoping to get some insight into how the product actually is How is the recline on this product? Is it possible to get a good rest? How is the service on AirNZ...

Some rellies of mine are planning a very rare overseas trip; they would normally be economy travellers but want to go Premium Economy this time; can't afford Business (but I will search for a cheap Biz sale ... Finnair?? and give them the option :) ) As I've not done PE, I'd appreciate any...

I have gold status and am flying to the US in a few months in economy. I can be added to the waiting list to upgrade for a business or premium economy upgrade, but have to choose one. Do you think there is a higher probability of getting one over the other? Thanks!

I'm curious for those that have experienced CX PE, if you think it's worth the additional cost instead of travelling Y? My mother has had a number of health issues recently and is very nervous about travelling to visit my brother in the US (ORD). Last trip she went with EY and briefly passed...

hi there, not sure if this is the correct place to ask as some of the categories seem to have changed ... anyway ... lets see. I am interested to know about the comparison between the premium economy products on offer at QF and CX. also interested to know if I can get lounge access etc...

When there's a nice anecdote to share, let's do it. I had a rather efficient experience with Finnair Customer Services through their online chat function to purchase Economy Comfort seats for a long-haul flight. It's one of those nice combinations where no airline will touch it through their...

I recently checked in for a QF flight to Australia. I wasn't surprised to see that only one check in counter was allocated to business and around five to economy. There was however the same amount of people in the business and economy queues so there must have been a few passengers with status...

Now that I have been upgraded to platinum, I can selected Economy X seats for my upcoming flights. I see that nearly all of you prefer to pick row 3. Why is that? I would imagine the leg room for all three rows to be the same? When I travel for more than 1 night, I usually have a backpack plus...

I'm trying to book 1 ticket DOM x INT (eg. SYD-BNE-HKG, same day) on premium economy and the booking engine supposedly suggests I have a 30kg baggage allowance. Elsewhere on the Qantas site, I'm led to believe I receive 40kg, as I've "purchased international and domestic flights and these are...

Hi, Setting up alerts on EF but they don't show which are awards and which are revenue classes. PE has E, R and W, does anyone know which is the award bucket? Thanks for any help. Cheers, CM

Merry Xmas all - I'd like some advice on any experiences in VA EconX vs QF PE. Specifically: At the moment I've got 23A (EconomyX) on VA8 (LAX-SYD 777-300ER), 38" pitch, decent reviews on SeatGuru. It's a standalone one-way points booking, so I can cancel without any significant penalty...
