I've been reading this thread a long time and have been continually curious as to what is considered a good cpm for Premium fare MR?
Is it still in the 3-4 cpm range as Economy fare MR's are?
you could check by looking at a few that are posted in the premium fare thread....i would think north of ten or maybe 15....
please post what you find....
edit to add....i can't find the thread
btw. what is your definition of premium fare?

Anything <10cpm for premium fares is considered a very good deal imo.

For example I found a domestic Premium Fare from for about 9.0 cpm to amass approximately 9500 miles... 4 segments.
I was wondering if that would be considered a good First Class MR fare...
its great if you want to go somewhere & want to fly in front, so would be good for a mr....the cpm is 2 times 4.5 which ain't bad these days for a mr in the back....& no promo...
so you are paying 4.5 cpm to sit in front on a mr...
the good premium thread is on the 1st page of mr deals....you could share your find there & see what others consider good....

Actually the forum moderators would request members not solicit fare feedback in that thread but rather ask here in MR Discussion as OP has done. Many members asking "is this a good premium fare" could take that thread far off topic.
If OP believes they've found a premium fare gem they can share it in that thread but only to note it's availability and not open a wider discussion about it's merits, relative value, etc.
Thanks. :)

so anything above 9cpm is not a good premium mr then, thanks for info

Also don't forget a premium fare is also based on equipment / duration. Obviously a long haul international premium fare with premium meals, lounges and seat/bed is going to be considerably more valuable then a domestic 737 premium F seat.
So I would argue a simple good cpm would be
Long Haul International Premium Aircraft (A380 possibly 787) < 14 CPM
Long Haul International <10 CPM
Long Haul domestic style <7 CPM
Of course any much better deals are always nice.
