Shopinpat Posted September 18, 2009 Author #26 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Hi Sheila, You really do not think it is worth upgrading to premium economy? Boy will I be agravated after paying all the money! I did think that you recieved different food, drinks, service more room, recliners,etc! Is that not true?

J18ktleo Posted September 19, 2009 #27 Share Posted September 19, 2009 I think it's a crap shoot really. When we last went to Australia we flew on a 1/2 empty plane and could stretch out across the seats but you never know... the description on the website does suggest way more amenities than economy: http://www.airnewzealand.com/on-the-plane/premium-economy/default.htm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Globaliser Posted September 19, 2009 #28 Share Posted September 19, 2009 You really do not think it is worth upgrading to premium economy? Boy will I be agravated after paying all the money!Premium economy seats are always worth some extra money, IMHO. The only economy seat combination that is quite close to a pair of premium economy seats is two people in a row of three economy seats in a bulkhead row on a day flight. And even then, I would have marginally preferred the premium economy seats, only it wouldn't have been worth the £300 pp that would have been needed on that flight. These are the sorts of considerations that go into the equation. Whether you get better food and drink is an airline-specific question. Others may be able to help with that.

Whether you get better food and drink is an airline-specific question. Others may be able to help with that. From Air New Zealand's web site, concerning Pacific Premium Economy: "Experience the very best of in-flight dining in Pacific Premium Economy on long-haul flights, enjoying a unique New Zealand dining experience designed by our team of consultant chefs: Premium New Zealand wines and 42 Below cocktails In-flight menus developed by our team of consultant chefs featuring New Zealand's finest produce Crockery and cutlery uniquely designed for Air New Zealand Self-service refreshment areas offering essentials like drinks and snacks throughout your flight Please note food and beverage service on short-haul international flights between New Zealand, Australia and the Pacific Islands is the same as provided in Pacific Economy" From that, I would fully expect that you will receive the same meals as Business Class on long-hau flights.
