E．That couldn't be further from the truth．

5 Fictions about Premium Economy（豪华经济舱） If the sight of your fellow passengers relaxing in premium economy has you filled with envy，you're not alone．It seems like every airline is providing a few rows of seats that offer just that much more legroom and space．But is it worth the price？Here are five fictions about premium economy class．
（1）Premium economy is pretty much the same on every airline．
"（1）DD"，says Zach Honig，editor-in-chief of the The Points Guy．Benefits can include anywhere from 5 to 7 inches of extra legroom，a slightly wider seat and slightly more seat recline （向后倚靠）．Other conveniences can include adjustable head rests，leg rests on some carriers，larger personal TV screens，power ports and a better level of food．But frankly，nothing is standardized．
（2）You get a meal and free drinks with a premium economy seat．
Not on most domestic flights that offer a semblance （表象） of international service． （2）FF But when it comes to meals，you'll get a few more bags of free peanuts than they offer in coach and the opportunity to purchase pre- packed in-flight meals before economy-class passengers do．
（3）There are others benefits，like free Wi-Fi．
You might find furrier pillows and larger blankets，but add-ons like in-flight Wi-Fi usually come along with an additional charge． "（3）AA"，says DiScala of Johnny Jet，who adds， "Some do，so always ask．I made the mistake of buying Wi-Fi on my SAS flight in June．I later learned that premium passengers get it for free．"
（4）You get a lot more space．
A "lot more space" is very relative．Don't expect a huge seat，just one that's somewhat larger than those in economy on the same aircraft．Honig says that "You can expect to find roughly as much space as you'll get in the domestic first-class cabin on a U．S．airline，or in JetBlue's 'Even More Space' section．It's definitely more than you'll have in coach．"
5． （4）BB
"Just as with business class，it's worth checking the price of premium economy，" says Leff of ViewfromtheWing．com． "The addition may not be very high．Last weekend，I wrote about premium economy on Virgin Atlantic being cheaper than coach．But it may also be much more expensive．Airfares vary dramatically，and that's as true for premium economy as it is for coach．"
