Premium Economy Standard (E): $1975.76 USD

Premium Economy Flex (W): $5759.76 USD

If I am not mistaken, the E class fare is simply the same as what used to be the R class fare. No further discounts compared to the "standard" PE fare before they introduced E class. Looks like this is simply a label change.

As a comparison, this is $367 higher than an H class (Economy Standard) fare.
W is so much higher to make AD75/ID75 close to useless.
