My coworker called the airlines (twice) and was advised that "the seats are the same" but if so, why would they offer the following:



I can deal with limited food and drink options, and even no in-flight entertainment (which is what happened on our flight out), but I cannot tolerate a non-full-reclining seat for a 16 hour flight. Can anyone offer a comparison between the two classes based on experience?
Can't help you per se but a very quick search "Philippines Airlines premium economy" returns several images.

I'd be careful of accepting the "free business class tickets" as the text indicates clearly this is space available upgrades (ie confirmed on the day only) and not business class tickets.
