Air New Zealand is to double the number of available Pacific Premium Economy seats on its fleet of eight 777-200ER aircraft in line with unprecedented demand.

Expected to be reconfigured by June 2009, each aircraft will have an additional 18 Pacific Premium Economy seats added taking the total available to 36. Air New Zealand Group General Manager International Airline Ed Sims said “clearly customers value the premium economy experience and recognise the superior leg room, personal space and our business class style service and are happy to pay more for that travelling experience over economy.“

Pacific Premium Economy seating is situated in its own dedicated cabin on the 777 and features business class style food and beverage service and amenities.
