If CO gets a premium economy , i think it will be a few rows (the premium seating) and still have a regular Y class.
i dont even care if they give me more amenities or not, as long as its a litte more leg room and maybe a foot rest. Ill bring my own eye mask.

Typical PE is BA, VS, JL etc who are offering 38-40" pitch and 8 instead of 9 wide on a 777. CO would be crazy not to offer at least this. It translates to around 50% more floor space, and an equivalent price premium which I think many corporates are willing to pay, as well as quite a few longhaul leisure travellers.
