premium economy

Does anyone know if, when flying Y, electing for Y+ reduces your chances of getting upgraded to J? I guess that would never be made public. I think I'd rather throw my hat in the ring for J if electing Y+ even remotely reduced my chances.

Anyone else seen this? Can't change an Economy X seat online? VA Platinum. Booked through CTM, auto-allocated 3D and 3C - which I'd normally be happy about, but preference in these COVID times is 3A or 3F - both of which are free. Try to change online - shows me 3A is free, allows me to...

I know that many of you are enjoying Matt's AFF on Air podcasts. As you probably know this is a free service available to all our members. But did you know that Matt also conducts regular webinars over at Frequent Flyer Solutions, our sister website. Faced with plummeting passenger demand and...

Hey everyone, just a heads up (and of course assuming international travel is back to some normality)- I was looking at premium economy fares on BA to LHR ex SYD in late November and you can get return flights for under AUD$3200.00. Thought that was a pretty good deal. Has anyone flown BA...

Apologies if this has been answered previously - I'm FF Gold (soon to be Platinum) and looking to travel SYD - SFO in May in Premium Economy with the view to do a points upgrade to J. Just wondering if I have a better chance of an upgrade in booking a Premium Economy cash fare vs Premium...

I’m thinking of booking a premium economy ticket to JFK with the intention of waitlisting for a J points upgrade on the Au to LAX leg. However, because I fly from Hobart I will have a domestic connection that doesn’t have premium economy seats. Does anyone know what fare code these domestic legs...

Just out of curiosity, has anyone flown on the refurbed A380s and more specifically, has anyone been seated in 31A/B/J/K. I know these seats don't have the great extra legroom feature as 24A/B/J/K (which in 12 months time will be phased out,) but according to seatguru.com, Row 31 is...

Had a booking from awhile ago and paid for econX and will be platinum before the flight(hence free econX) and was hoping for a refund. I know I will have to ring customer service but was wondering if any one had any experience with this before I do.

Hi all, My partner and I are both platinum (with a 9 month old infant) and make use of the economy x seats. 2 weeks ago, check in for flight syd-cns and our seats have been moved (still economy x) so didn't think much of it. This morning, have checked in for cns-syd departing tomorrow, and we...

G’day! I have an upcoming flight from Brisbane to Sydney in Business (qantas) with a connection to the US (qantas) with a connection in the US (aa) - all on one ticket. Does anyone know if the Qantas Domestic Premium Lounge Entry has the ability to check in my bags given I have a connection? Or...

My family travelled on QF36 in both classes. Was a bit suprised the choices for the dinner were the same except Neil's leaves! I travelled in Premium and enjoyed the hot breakfast though. I felt that was better than the usual egg and bacon roll in J! Not sure what happened here.

I want to fly PE SYD->MEX return next year (1/6-8/6/20) and I see QANTAS have a PE deal for $3200 via Dallas with their 380, whereas Virgin costs around $3400 via LAX on the 777. I believe the US->MEX leg will be Economy only. Has anyone flown these 2 routes to the US and can compare them? I...

Would love to know peoples thoughts on if CX or SQ had a better Premium Economy product? Ive been both and I think the SQ service was better and I prefer Changi to HKIA when transiting but I found the seat awkward, firm and uncomfortable! Whilst CX seat I found a bit better softer seats for...

Over the past 2 years I purchased on 5 separate occasions extra leg room on Singapore Airlines. When paying extra on a flight you do have some expectation of getting at least the same service or better in the cabin. From my experience you get the following: 100% of the time you will be the last...

Hi, very new here, so apologies if this has been answered. I'm looking to make a cash booking LAX-SYD one way on VA6551, operated by Delta (DL41). If I book Premium Economy for the VA flight number, how do I guarantee to be in Delta Premium Select, rather than Comfort+? I've read how to do it...

Hey AFF’ers - is it normal for seat selection on Y+ to be completely unavailable 4 weeks out from departure? I’m SG and just getting the window/aisle preference option with no option to pick anything. I’ve checked expertflyer and the whole Y+ cabin is either taken and the other half of the...

Singapore Airlines will start using an Airbus A350-900 with Premium Economy seating on its MEL-WLG route from 1 November. Interestingly, for KrisFlyer redemptions there is no price listed for Premium Economy award bookings on the SQ award chart for this route. You also cannot book Premium...

Hi, we're looking to travel from Sydney to Europe in Aug/Oct 2020. 2 adults, 2 children. What's the best way to register for premium economy sales alerts? We're flexible on dates, countries and airlines - my only requirement is to avoid economy getting there! Would love to try and find a deal...

Very disappointed on my recent flight with delta they refused to even put me on the comfort plus upgrade list. I requested at check in, at the lounge and at the gate. They seemed to have very limited awareness of the delta/virgin arrangements, which goes against my previous experience where...
