Premium Flights

Premium economy seats are the latest seat class offered by different airlines. This type of seat class was first offered by European Airlines such as BA, Air France and Virgin Atlantic. The popularity of this seat class prompted US based airlines to offer the same type of service. For a few extra dollars, you will usually have more legroom, more preference in meals and personal in flight entertainment.

But is it really worth it? Would you pay extra just to have a little upgrade of services?

This usually depends on where you are travelling and how you are travelling. Premium economy seats are highly recommended for international travel. Since you will be in your chair for at least 12 hours, you might as well pay extra to have a better chair with better options.

On the other hand, if you are only travelling locally and alone, you might be better off in economy. Remember that what you are getting is an upgrade from economy seats and if you are able to go through little inconveniences, you can save on transportation costs.

You can also travel in premium economy during domestic flights when you are travelling with your kids. The leg room that you and your family will enjoy is more than enough to let your little ones do what they want without bothering anyone.

Unfortunately, premium economy seats are only offered in limited flights for now. But they are now offered in major destinations in the country such as Las Vegas, Orlando and Los Angeles to cater to the increasing demands of this type of reservation
