Best Airlines and Offers to Asia in Premium Economy

A Deep Dive for Best Deals: China Southern, EVA Air, and Singapore for Best Fares, and Japan Airlines for Lowest Miles.

Premium Economy is a caste system: There’s Premium Economy Elite (PE Elite) and Premium Economy Lite (PE Lite).  The former refers to airlines that have created a separate cabin and an upgraded seat; the latter are airlines that have just put in a bit more legroom at the front of economy. (See March’s detailed Premium Economy seat comparison chart.) In April, FCF started a comprehensive survey, by region, of Premium Economy Elite to Europe and in July the South Pacific.

This month we look at U.S.-Asia, a route that often has high Business Class fares, especially on the top carriers: Cathay Pacific and Singapore.
