Finally – an airline that has been listening to compaints by international travelers flying Economy Class!  Air New Zealand has just introduced their new Premium Economy “spaceseat” available on their 777-300ER aircraft on flights from Los Angeles to London and Auckland.  Undoubtedly, not everyone travels to these destinations, but maybe ait NZ’s bold step will motivate other air carriers to follow suit.

On this aircraft with 2/2/2 seating across in this class, passengers have more privacy, avoid the passenger in front of them reclining into their space, and have personal electrical power, USB port, iPod connection and over 500 hours of entertainment via touch screen.  This new seating category is in addition to their Business Premier and two other Economy Classes on this aircraft.

Feel more rested when arriving at your destination by considering this option where available!
