Premium economy class is for those of you who need an upgrade from economy class but still want to keep it as minimal as possible in terms of money. To clarify, premium economy class fares are cheaper in comparison to business & first-class seats but relatively cost more than regular economy seats. Throughout the years, there has been a gradual increase in popularity for premium economy class fares due to the availability of more amenities for passengers. Keep in mind, that the extent of what these amenities are; vary significantly between domestic and international flights and between low-cost or regional airlines. While it all depends on the above, some notable differences between premium and regular economy class may include seats with a bit more legroom, improved in-flight entertainment systems, at-seat laptop power, increased baggage allowance and upgraded meals and drinks. More differences from standard economy class may include lounge access, amenity kits and because it is levelled right in between economy and business class, premium economy class also makes earning increased flyer points possible.
