But as it is now the Economy class tickets are a fourth of the price of the business class, and the only thing you get is more of everything. Where is the alternative to pay 25% more for the ticket, yet skip the extra stuff, but just get a nicer smoother experience?
- jorvi 9y agoIsn't that basically what economy+ is on several airlines? You get a tinge more legroom and priority boarding, but no of the other niceties.
- autarch 9y agoThat's what Delta calls Economy Comfort, which is economy with a little more leg room and earlier boarding. At 6'7" it's well worth the extra cost for me.
- jdavis703 9y agoIt's called "premium economy" generally. You get slightly bigger seats, maybe better food options (or it's included as part of your ticket) and sometimes early access to the cabin.
- hocuspocus 9y agoDoes it cost only 25% more though? I don't fly US domestic routes but for a transoceanic flight it'll typically cost you twice the price of standard economy (and in turn business is about 2x eco+, and first 2x business).
- selectodude 9y agoYeah, maybe an extra $75 on a $250 ticket.
- closeparen 9y ago>bigger seats Really? As I recall, Delta and United premium economy are normal economy seats in the forward half of the airplane. It saves you a few minutes deplaning, but does nothing for the comfort level in flight.

On United it is the same economy seat, but it does have more legroom due to increased separation between rows of seats, compared to standard economy.
