A good sale to Johannesburg. British Airways Premium Economy seats is 38″ pitch and 18.5″ width.
For American flyers, this fare will earn 150% Elite Qualifying Miles, 100% Redeemable Miles and 20% of distance flown as Elite Qualifying Dollars.
For example, from Los Angeles, this fare will earn 33,246 elite qualifying miles, 22,164 redeemable miles and $4,432 elite qualifying dollars.
Pricing is as follows:
- Los Angeles [LAX] – $1,976
- Boston [BOS] – $1,912
- Chicago [ORD] – $1,912
- Dallas [DFW] – $2,003
- Miami [MIA] – $1,912
- New York [JFK] – $1,912
- San Francisco [SFO] – $1,996
- Washington D.C. [IAD] – $1,912
On some dates, Delta will be cheaper, but Delta at the moment does not send its TRUE premium economy product to Johannesburg. Instead, just a coach seat with 2 or so extra inches of legroom.
(We are testing Premium Economy / Business Class / First Class deals the next few weeks to sort out some workflow and algorithms issues, we will see how it goes and whether to make this a regular feature – for Business Class / First Class deals.)
