Totally agree with this take—premium economy is one of those products I want to love, but every time I fly it, I end up feeling a little duped. Yeah, the seat’s wider and I get to board earlier, but the actual experience rarely lives up to the hype or the price. Paying 2-3x more for a slightly better tray meal and a few extra inches just doesn’t add up for me.
Honestly, if I'm going to splurge, I’d rather stretch a little further to business and actually get the flat bed and some real comfort. Curious if anyone's ever felt like premium economy was actually worth full price?
