SEA 3-5 times a year.
LGB/BUR/ONT 2-3 times.
PVD 2-3 times.
DEN once.
Asia 1-2 times.
Of those only Asia would/may have "premium economy" as used by international airlines
Real (international) PE has bigger wider seats and more legroom.
example CX A350 https://www.aerolopa.com/cx
Y 3-3-3 (9 across)
PE 2-4-2 (8 across and more leg room)
Business 1-2-1

AS "Premium Class" is not premium economy by international standards. Still surprised and amused AS use that term after joining oneworld alliance. Creates confusion

If you select the "Premium Economy" option and is not available, what happens?
Or are they conflating real [international] "Premium Economy" and MCE, Economy plus?

Earnings to a ffp are more with real PE/bus compared to economy/coach Y.
