Which airlines also offer Premium Economy
As a class between economy and business class, some airlines have been offering a new class, Premium Economy, for some time. For a price that is also settled between economy and business class rates, this class usually offers more legroom, somewhat wider seats and, depending on the airline, a somewhat superior service. Not every airline calls this class premium economy, Eurowings calls it simply Best, British Airways calles it World Traveler Plus and KLM Economy Comfort.
