I donno if they still do it, but AC used to have a 'bid' process for Premium Economy.

It's a scam, because when you enter the amount you're willing to pay, it gives you a bar graph of the likelihood of getting the seat for your price, and you only get one chance.

That said, when we were coming back from Korea, I bid $450 per seat (my wife and I), when the asking price was $1500. It said I had a low chance, but I said fuckit, and we ended up getting it.

For $450, yes absolutely worth it. Given how shitty AC is compared to other asian airlines, it was worth it. Keep in mind AC PE seats don't let you raise the middle arm rest in the 2/2/2 configs, so if you think you can sprawl, you can't.

Regular price, for AC, I would not.
