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?

The 700 is also used for the daily weekday YEG-LAS flights and LAS-YEG Flight back as well it appears. Considering last time I took one of each, the planes were almost full I'd be surprised to see that one removed anytime soon.
