What airlines have PE seats or what is equivalent seating cat on Usa airlines?

[MrsJobba1]

Hello everyone ,
I noticed a few threads regarding airlines and it has got me thinking ( which is dangerous) lol!

Some of you might know I have discs missing in my spine and as a result when we fly to wdw we have to fly in Premium Economy style seats to allow for extra leg room. I just can't seat in economy seats as its to painful not bring able to stretch .

In the past we've flown thomas cook , monarch ( which was horrendous) and usually virgin.

I was wondering what other airlines have PE seats?

We usually fly from either Manchester or Glasgow

Has anyone used BA? What do they call their PE seats?

Also do American airlines like Delta have a seating category like PE ( I think there economy class is coach) if so what do they call it?

What are they like.

Any help advice is really appreciated thanks

Almost all of them do.

Virgin - PE
BA - World Traveller Plus
American Airlines - ExtrAA
Delta - Economy Comfort
United - Economy Plus

What they offer depends on the airline. Personally having done PE, there's no way I'd pay for it. You need to see what they offer and at what price to decide whether it's worth it for you.

I don't think AA have anything between Coach and Business. Flying with them next trip.

For Delta we paid £38 for the upgrade, full price is about £50 or £52, one way for the transatlantic leg. It was certainly worth £38, would proabably pay £52 for the return leg, not too bothered about going out.

Just looked on their site, couldn't see anything, will have another look.

All these types of seats are worth about £50 each way to me, £75 max, I wouldn't pay anymore than that but having a larger than average body and DS longer than average legs they do make flying more comfortable.

We are using Virgin PE next year mainly because we will have a 9 month old with us

I've only seen it on a couple of domestic flights. Maybe they don't do it on transatlantic? Maybe it's business for shorter distance? Maybe I imagined it?!?

They do "Main Cabin Extra" on some flights. Maybe that's what I saw.
