It will probably be sold as "Comfort+" on domestic routes. I would pick premium economy if it meant getting the seat shown, even without the international amenities.

I believe AA frequent fliers can already seek out their new premium economy seat on domestic 787-9 routes.

I have flown Virgin Atlantic's premium economy product and every aspect of the hard and soft product were superior to domestic first in my opinion.
