Is premium economy worth the extra money?

HOWEVER, you might get good deals on PE sometimes which might make it worth it. I wouldnt mind paying 1.5x for PE

U would only have more leg space, a teeny weeny more width to your seat and an advantage to pre select your food ahead of the economy class... Personal feel that it is not the worth the extra money
