Flag carrier Philippine Airlines (PAL) has rebranded its domestic premium economy service to further enhance the overall travel experience of passengers.
In a statement, PAL said the renamed comfort class will now be offered on all domestic flights operated by its Airbus A330 Bi-class, Airbus A321ceo, Airbus A320 and De Havilland DHC-8-400 Next Generation aircraft.
Passengers flying on comfort class will enjoy a more comfortable and convenient flight experience, PAL said. On the ground, they will have priority check-in and boarding, a 25-kilogram free baggage allowance for checked-in baggage, and 100 percent mileage accrual for Mabuhay Miles members.
Onboard their PAL flight, comfort class passengers will be able to partake of hot sandwiches and a choice of drinks, the airline said. Their comfort class seats give them more personal space and legroom with a pitch of up to 34 inches, and are located closer to the front of the aircraft for faster boarding and deplaning.
comfort class retains all the privileges and amenities that were previously offered under the former premium economy domestic product, PAL added.
In addition to the newly rebranded comfort class, travelers on PAL domestic flights will have the option of flying on business class (on selected routes served by A321 and A330 aircraft) as well as PAL’s mainline economy class.
On international flights, PAL said it will continue to offer a full premium economy service on its Airbus A350 and A330 tri-class aircraft, featuring a separate private cabin and specially designed wider seats equipped with personal video entertainment screens, leg rests and extra recline, along with a seat pitch of 38 inches. – Myla Iglesias
