  • Just to add that Premium Economy on the 787-9 apparently has more legroom than Business Class on the 737 (38" pitch vs 37") so if you're travelling SYD/AKL and already have lounge access, might be worth considering PE on the QF3/4 rather than 737 biz and get more room for less $. I guess ditto ME...

  • Premium Economy SYD/AKL on the QF3 & 4 seems a bargain on current sale - has more legroom than QF 737 Business Class.

  • Yes, the last minute confiscation condition means that effectively what you are paying for is only to have exclusive use (instead of sharing with the person on the other side) a seat which would have been empty anyway. I assume that as well as last minute sales they can put waitlisted staff ...

  • Are you paying to keep seat vacant or for extra sleep space (assuming armrests lift)?Might be awkward in a row of three where passenger in aisle buys extra seat and then has to explain to passenger in window seat that middle seat is his alone to expand into.

    Our group has just canned our SYD/DRW/LHR for a different airline without 6hrs over Russia.
