Is United Premium Plus Worth it? San Francisco to Singapore Review

Рет қаралды 145,267

I recently flew United Premium Plus on my way to Singapore from San Francisco, and in this video I'll show you what the experience was like, including a full seat tour, on-board food, lavatories, and the overall flying experience. Premium Plus is United's "Premium Economy" offering, not quite business class, but much nicer and roomier than a regular Economy cabin seat. On a long international flight it's definitely something worth considering.

I think Premium Economy is more than worth it on long haul flights. Like you said - it's about seat/flight comfort. Thanks for the info + video!

@PaulHenricksen Жыл бұрын

I flew Premium Plus from Newark to Tokyo a few years ago and it was definitely worth it. I'm a big guy so that extra width and leg room is worth it. It will be hard flying long haul in a regular economy seat again. It's a great trade off for those that want more space than economy but can't afford business/ first class

Thank you for sharing this trip. Yes, that Premium Plus Economy section there right behind First/Business Clas/Polaris is very good. I think I like the that first row and seating at the window of that section. of courser First/Business Polaris Class with that lay flat seat is way better on long-haul trips. But if you don't have the points but you want better service then I agree with you about paying the extra for a little more comfort.

Air France is only reducing seating from 9 to 8 seats/row in the A350-900 Premium Eco (2-4-2)… will find or how that checks out from Europe to Japan later this year… In the 777 they also reduce from 10 to 8 (2-4-2). However I’m in one of the outside seats on both flights, I guess that’s the way to go

@nredmaster Ай бұрын

I sat at the window seat at 2:02 when I went. I was checking the seating on the app before boarding and saw that entire row and behind it was empty on a pretty full flight and immediately changed my seat before they locked it it. It was amazing being able to sleep comfortably, but people kept trying to steal the exit row in front the whole flight until they literally roped it off.

Timing! Just landed in SFO from SIN a few hours ago...we tried a few times to use miles to upgrade, but never seem to get it? Got it only once. United waits till the last minute to allow people to pay $$$ and there seems to be plenty of people who are willing to pay the extra $834 for SIN-SFO (not us 🤣). They need more economy plus premium seats! We don't usually try to get it going to S.E. Asia. For going there we stop in Japan for jetlag recovery. There is a flight that leaves SFO in late morning and lands around 3pm the next day (hotel check in time) in Japan. The whole flight of 10 hrs is all awake time for CA. Check-in, grab a bite, go to bed. Then in 1 or 2 days we are in the time zone. Japan is an easy 10 hr flight vs. going thru SIN at 17 hrs. We spend a few days in Tokyo (who doesn't like Japan?) to acclimatize and then head south on a 7hr flight to SE Asia. Coming home we do the 15 hours (tail winds) SIN-SFO. We can deal with jetlag at home by watching your KZfaq videos at 2am.😂

@SherrifOfNottingham Жыл бұрын

The sad part is how worth it can really depend on the plane, these seats on many domestic flight aircraft are exactly what you get when you pay for business class. I say that if you have the money for premium economy to take it. The slight increase in seat space really makes a difference on that long flight, but make sure you're paying attention to the specific airline's specific plane for that route. Some will charge you premium economy for the first few rows of economy, so it's the same seat but with the "slightly better" food of premium economy (which we established is not really worth it).

I flew Premium Plus last night from SFO to EWR for the first time. I was in 22G on the aisle. Seat width was ok. The fixed foot rest wasn't really good. The pop out leg rest was pretty much unusable - my feet/legs were most comfortable with my feet extended under the seat in front of me. because of the installation supports, my under seat storage was limited. I typically select either window or aisle seats. In this case, I would have selected a center seat to get more room if I had known. The United Club in SFO Terminal 3 feels dated. The line was long due to several passengers getting customer service needs taken care of at the check in desk, even though there is a staffed customer service desk as soon as you pass the check-in desk. Furniture was just sad, many seat cushions badly ripped up.
