Premium economy is what a normal seat was before the airlines went rogue

@briangasser973 The point is that there was only business, 1st, class, and then the rest. Airlines became “creative” after 9-11 and made up a lot of “charges” for things that were already basic and included.

@briangasser973 Nope. After 9-11, the Government allowed airlines to temporarily implement a-la-cart charges in order to recover from the economic downturn caused by the attacks. The Airlines eventually recovered, but the temporary charges never went away and instead became permanent and multiplied to many other things not needing to be charged for. It got to the point now where our US domestic airlines are discussing the possibility of adding a standing in the aisle option. This is just out of control

@charlesjay8818 All those seats were the same price. But now they are a-la-cart for the same old seat 😂😂😂

@charlesjay8818 Always normal. Manufacturing classes of seats within a class is asinine. Like now the seat next to the exit door is “premium “ lol I can’t with the price gouging clowns.
