If you're a frequent traveler looking for airplane comfort on a budget, upgrading to Economy Plus or Premium Economy can be a great solution. With more legroom, wider seats, and extra amenities, premium economy offers a more comfortable and relaxing flying experience without breaking the bank.

Not only does premium economy offer more space, but it also provides better services and amenities. For example, you can expect better food and beverage options, priority boarding, and increased baggage allowance. Some airlines even offer amenity kits, noise-canceling headphones, and larger personal screens for entertainment.

Moreover, premium economy seats are located in a separate cabin, which means you'll have a quieter and more peaceful environment compared to the busy economy cabin. This is especially important for passengers who want to sleep, work or relax during their flight.

In terms of cost, premium economy seats are more expensive than economy class, but they are often more affordable than business class seats. This makes upgrading to premium economy a great option for budget-conscious travelers who still want to enjoy some of the perks of business class travel

I have just flown on SQ in Premium Economy. From Australia to Europe. Fare difference being approx AUD2000. Not worth it. Purchase exit row in economy, and extra baggage if you need. You can also purchase lounge access if you want it. All you can’t purchase is check in, and boarding. Had I purchased exit row on all flights it would have been approx AUD500.

The most important factor in our decision is PRICE. That is not mentioned in this advertisement. Presently Premium Economy is way Overpriced. I wait for 12 months before I will consider premium economy again.

Most of the content in this video goes without saying. Of course PE offers more benefits than economy. But how much more you need to pay is not mentioned at all. If price is not an important concern, why don't we just fly in first class which offers way more benefits than PE?

Premium Economic class does have extra perks that we didn't even know about. We checked into the Paris airport 2 hours before our fly and realized the custom line was longer than I ever expected. We thought we would miss the flight. Luckily, upon checking our boarding pass, they let us wait in a shorter line for business and premium economy class. We barely made it even in the shorter line. We definitely would be late if we had economy class.

The point is that you should spend extra money, if I have the money why not first class, also my main concern is to get from point A to B the fastest and safest so I can get on with my life 🤙

The seats shown here for P.E. don’t exist on most airlines. Also not all allow priority check in and priority security . Again meals vary, on some airlines the food in P.E. is not much better than Economy. Check what the airline you are going to use before deciding to book.

When shopping for a product or service one must consider the businesses reason for offering options. Generally it's to make more revenue. This video seems like a commercial for airlines rather than good advice.

To me the greatest advantage of premium economy is a bigger seat with greater recline. Even three inches of extra recline can make sleep far more possible because it gets you that little bit closer to fully reclined. It isn't worth paying double though. I would never pay more than 30% extra for premium economy and prefer 10 to 20%. If u book far enough ahead you can even get it for practically free sometimes. I just bought my flights home for next summer, 9 months ahead and paid almost no extra. I actually paid 10% more to get the flight with flexibility in date changes and refund, because I wasn't paying anything extra for premium economy.

For a long haul flight, upgrading to premium is totally worth it if you can afford to.
The better food and entertainment is great, but those few inches of extra room make all the difference in the world.

I wish the domestic flights had better premium economy. As it is, seat is same as economy. All you get is 4” more legroom. And same meal but free

If you want real comfort upgrade to business class. I paid $595 at the gate for an upgrade from basic economy on my trip to Rome from Dulles Washington DC. For seniors like me with pre existing conditions bus. class is the way to go

[reefhound]

Of course it's nicer but the flights I'm looking at it it is $1200 more RT than economy. That $1200 can buy a whole lot more comfort and convenience at my destination.

Next up, video on why you should always upgrade to First Class on Ultra Long Haul

TRY THAI AIRWAYS you get nothing of an upgrade. I paid GBP3, 500 for 2 Premium Economy seats from LHR (UK) to Bangkok Thailand last September & the only thing extra was baggage which I did not need & cancellation fees etc. would be less. Seating & food exactly same as GBP650 Economy seat. I asked for bulkhead seats on our return & they wanted GBP80 each extra for tha. Absolutely disgraceful we are flying EVA in November same LHR to BKK but Business class & boy that costs an arm & a leg.

I'm pretty sure that the world traveller plus seat do not get lounge access on ba. Unless do you know a way to get it?

Thanks again for another entertaining video 🎉

Earlier boarding is irrelevant. The plane leaves at a certain time regardless when you sit down.

[mxweng]

Not worth of money for long flight. The price difference is double yet you only get a few more inches - still can not sleep. For that much money I can buy a brand new iPhone. Business class on the other hand is much better but it's very expensive. I booked 2 business class flights to Romania and Ukraine during the pandemic for about $2500 USD and $2800 USD each round trip and now the price is at least double.

[pommydiva]

thank you for this informative comparison. there is quite a big difference in most aspects of the seat and meals. but im wondering just how much more cost is a premium economy

[cindygaul]

We fly premium economy all the time on American and have never received a meal! This is for domestic travel. Maybe you are referring to international travel?
