Premium Economy: it’s all about a premium experience for an affordable price with Air New Zealand.

If you want all the benefits of premium travel at a great price, choose Air New Zealand’s Premium Economy cabin. You’ll be welcomed onboard with premium check-in and priority boarding by our friendly flight attendants.

Once onboard, you can stretch out and enjoy more legroom with the largest seat pitch in its class and 50% more recline than Economy. We have customised a beautifully comfortable ink coloured luxury leather seat with generous armrests, a leg rest and foot support for your journey.

Throughout the flight, you’ll be offered a customised premium menu full of fresh, high quality ingredients, delivering deliciously satisfying flavours with a modern Kiwi twist. Plus there’s full access to movies, TV, music and games available on an 11-inch HD capacitive touchscreen from the moment you board to the moment you land.

You can enjoy hours of entertainment with premium headphones, in-seat power and a USB connection. All the while, Air New Zealand’s award-winning Kiwi hospitality will keep you comfortable and relaxed.

All Premium bookings include two checked bags (up to 23kg each) and two carry-on bags (up to 7kg each).

Premium Economy is available on all Boeing 777-200, 777-300 and 787-9 services to New Zealand, the Pacific Islands along with North and South America.
