Priority boarding for PE passengers?

[PaulST]

Hi all,
I flew my third PE flight last week (QF21) and I was surprised to see that we were given access to the J boarding line. I know that PE passengers get a dedicated check-in counter (shared with QP and PS) but this is the first time we've been given access to a priority line when boarding the plane. On the other two occasions I've flown PE, we boarded with Y passengers.

Is this something new? I've attached a photo of the flight report I did and whilst there's no mention of PE on that black standing sign (I'm sure it's got a name), it is mentioned on the TV screen above the premium line.

Apologies for bumping my own thread but I didn't want to hijack the status gold priority boarding thread. Have these changes come in at the same time, but the premium economy change hasn't been publicised?

Maybe with four CX flights a day, someone from QF management noted that PEY boarding on CX has priority over their Y passengers?:shock:

Happy wandering

Do they? I've got 3 CX flights (all J) over the next month so I'll see how it goes. Hope the PE plebs don't get in the road too much.
