I gotta go down to Sydney in October for a buddy's wedding and considering the length of the flight I'm considering premium economy for Air Canada as I basically can't sleep on airplanes (at least in economy) and I figure a nicer seat will help.

Anyone flow PE on Air Canada? How is it? It doesn't seem as nice as other airlines' PE seats but I'll take what I can get on a 16 hour flight but it's still double the money ($4k vs $2k)

Edit: I'm 5'6" so it's not the legroom that matters that much, more the seat width and reclining.
