UA does not refer to Economy Plus as PE. AA does not refer to Main Cabin Extra as PE and DL does not refer to Comfort Plus as PE.
AA is offering PE on a limited, but expanding basis, as PE.
DL is offering PE, on a limited but expanding basis, as Premium Select.
It does not help people who come to FT looking for information to engage in a rant about what some Asian carrier may offer when OP is looking for transport between WAS and Europe and more importantly, none of the US carriers offer or promote their "slightly better seat" as a premium economy product.

AA is offering W on a limited basis? All 15 787-9, all 15 A330-200, all 20 777-300ER, 35 of 47 777-200ERs offer PE / W. The 20 787-8s and remaining 12 777-200ERs are being refitted with W. All future 787 aircraft will be delivered with W. The only widebody AA aircraft without W are the 24 767-300ER, and the nine A330-300.
