Which flight company is best for premium economy.

I think I’ve read that the answer is Emirates, but they’re also about the most expensive.
It can pay to look around & do comparisons, our 2018 Europe trip was cheaper flying China Airlines (Taiwan-based - not a Chinese Communist Party owned airline) in Business than Premium Economy with Qantas or Singapore or Cathay or British Airways (and likely plenty of others) while being on newer aircraft (very new A350’s).

For PE I have to say Qantas is pretty good at it.

Hi and welcome to AFF!

Not sure there is any one airline that is ‘the best’ in premium economy. Emirates is the newest and right up there, Qantas is another.

Other airlines tend to offer more of an economy service, just with a bigger seat. Emirates and Qantas offer one of a full domestic business class service, together with the bigger seat.

But prices vary widely… if all you’re after is a bigger seat, pre out economy is pretty much the same seating dimensions across all carriers. So pick the cheapest.

That said, if you’re looking at premium economy on Emirates or Qantas, you can likely find a business class ticket on a cheaper airline for around the same price!

What route are you considering eg between Oz and Nth America? Or to Europe? etc.

That narrows down the options to compare.

Strangely, I just looked at one review and EK was something like 7th of 10. I didn’t post the link because it didn’t include QF, CX nor the US carriers…

I read somewhere… was it here in AFF or a review somewhere else? They were serving an AUD90 bottle of red in PEY on EK!

Impressive!

Nice, if true!

Or maybe a catering mixup and F/J were being served Long Flat Red/White!
