First Choice Premium Shorthaul

am anxious to know what exactly First Choice offer on its A321-200 aircraft fitted with premium service seats.

It seems a good idea, but is it the same as long haul or maybe its different completly

Yeah but who would want to pay £49 for it on a flight to say Spain or The Balearics? Fair enough with Greece, Canaries, Turkey, they might as well just have an all economy config on the shorter flights in my view, or I imagine they would just lose money.

yes i think it seems an idea first choice should improve on and fit to all short haul aircraft as it seems to do well

I flew on a FCA(then AMM) A321 in Premium class from EMA to ACE @2 years ago. The cost was £49 and worth it imo. The front 4 rows were allocated; seats no wider than economy but seemed to have thicker padding and there was 4″ more legroom. Food marginally better but still nothing great. Priority check-in and baggage reclaim was included. I think the Premium class on the B767s offers wider seats and other benefits. Strangely the A320s and B757s don’t offer any sort of Premium class.
