Most agree going from economy to premium economy/domestic first try and stay at 50$/hour or below for the difference. For business 100$/hour. This are generally viewed as the barriers for the “good deals”. But ultimately it’s up to your own finances. Good example that I actually pulled up: New York - JFK to London- LHR 7 hour flight - One Way Economy - 400$ Premium Economy - 1600$ The difference between these is 1200$ and for the 7 hour flight that is 171$/hour to upgrade to premium economy. Most will say this is not a good deal and this is closer to what you should expect for a business level upgrade. Couple days later the fares are: 400$ - Economy 650$ - Premium Economy Coming to a rate of 35$/hour which pretty much everyone will say this is a good deal and worth it. Premium Economy is a different class than Economy it is not just the choose your own seat in an exit row option. You should expect nicer seats nicer food and a more premium experience.
