Lufthansa to Join the Premium Economy Crowd
Thursday, December 6, 2012 at 3:16PM Lufthansa (LH) will equip its entire intercontinental fleet with a Premium Economy cabin, joining the ranks of Virgin Atlantic, United Airlines, Delta and Air New Zealand and more that have plugged the chasm between Economy - little changed in decades - and Business - which has been transformed into a cocoon of comfort over the last decade.
Its unclear yet as to what Lufthansa will decide upon in terms of layout and amenities. With United and Delta's product little more than extra legroom, Virgin Atlantic and Air New Zealand's products feature an entirely different seat, seat pitch and inflight catering.
The vastly different offerings make Premium Economy the most confusing of cabin products, and it pays to research the quality carefully before purchase.
