Call me a hybrid, if you will.

In a 14 hr. flight to the Philippines, I remembered my last trip was as cramped as it could be in the economy section.  Sleeping was almost impossible! Based on my experience, room to move my legs and arms was limited.  (oh yeah) Getting hit by the back seat of the person sitting in front of me, was simply annoying.  Well, (brace yourself) it is safe to say, that I am happy to hear about Cathay Pacific's recent launched of the Premium Economy class in its 747 & 777 aircraft. The flights are available between N.Y. and Hong Kong from April 2012.  The perks? Let's get to it! You will have a priority check-in, increase baggage allowance from 20kg to 25kg (oh hay! more room for shopping), on board- you wil receive complimentary champagne, noice-canceling headphones, plush pillows and blankets and much more.  Cozy, sophisticated and hip. I think this is worth checking out. UPGRADE PLZ!
