When they operate Calgary-Toronto (or any other longer flight) on a 700, does that mean that Premium service consists of a cold meal?
What does the current cold meal offering consist of?
(Every one of my recent cold food experiences in Premium have been the snack-sized “cauliflower-apple salad and cold piece of grilled halloumi cheese” — but those have been on shorter flights.)
The 700 appears to be deployed on the YHZ-YYZ route also. Does it mean that I would have a very good chance of getting "European style" business class with the centre seat blocked and a cold meal?
As I shop for my flight in 2020, I am "shocked" to see WS Premium Economy pricing is some $60 more expensive than AC Business Class! The equipment is 737-700 and WS does not even have a lounge in YHZ and as far as I know, WS does not have priority check in for PE, at least that's not one of the features posted on its web site.
Am I missing something that I should not buy AC and save $60 plus the following not offered by WS: priority check in, pre-departure lounge, guaranteed bigger seat and a hot meal?
