Now, this is what you call a well-done review. Wow!! The amount of details is amazing. Please make one for every single airline and different seats😅🎉

I really enjoy your videos. You provide great detail that is most helpful.

Really enjoy your videos. It’s about time I made a comment. Definitely BA over American for me. Thank you for videos keep them coming

Did the last row in PE recline as much as the other rows? Deciding between bulkhead and last row. Not sure if the lavatories by the bulkhead would be annoying with people standing by them etc.

It's WORTH it! On a Boeing 787 in ECONOMY, you're going to be sitting in a 3-3-3 configuration just like a 737 with someone (maybe you) in the MIDDLE SEAT.

Thanks for the video - I fly AA a fair bit only because the cities I fly out of and to are hubs, and I'd rather have a nonstop flight than make a connection on another airline. I'm planning a Dallas to Frankfurt trip in 2025, and I' considering the premium economy. It seems that for no other reason, the better seat, leg room and recline may be worth it on an overnight flight.

Enjoyed watching this video, and I’d agree….BA is a bit better.

I am considering upgrading to Premium Economy for my upcoming trip between LHR and MIA. It is a 10+ hour flight. One-way tickets are a bit expensive, I paid $750 for my trip. I have flown this route before in Business Class and even once in First Class. After purchasing the ticket, I checket my AA account and I was offered an upgrade to Premium Economy for $600, which would make my total cost be $1350. As an AA Frequent Flyer, I was able to book an upgraded coach seat and I have an aisle seat with extra legroom. But, I am wondering if the $600 is better spent elsewhere on my trip or if Premium Economy is worth the price. This video makes me think not, but 10 hours in coach makes me wonder.

Really enjoyed your video! I flew in the same cabin a few weeks ago (and in the same seat) on their LAX to MIA route, but it was sold as economy and there was no meal service. Looks like you had a decent flight, but I'm not sure the service or seat warrant the price difference between this and economy.

[slimpyjones]

Good review as always :-) I don't think it feels like a very "Premium" experience on AA. Do you have plans to cover United's Premium Plus, perhaps on LHR-EWR?

[LayaWhite]

If paying cash, I'm not sure why anyone would choose this over Norse Atlantic premium economy.

[simnsmsmith]

25 years ago this would have been plain economy...

[rrewy]

Looked pretty unsurprising definitely think the UK carriers offer a better product in all classes.
Certainly wouldn't chose AA over BA.
