The LOT Polish Airlines Experience: Boeing 787-9 Premium Economy from Warsaw to Newark

Hey everyone! After a break last month, I'm back with another review. In January of 2022 I flew onboard LOT Polish Airlines in Premium Economy for the first time from Poland to the United States! LOT has cheap ticket fares and has been quickly expanding in the last few years, but do they stand up to their European competitors? I'll answer this question in addition to of course showing you the full Premium Economy experience you'll get if you fly LOT Polish Airlines!

I hope this review was helpful and answered some questions for you. If there's anything else I can answer and/or help you with regarding LOT or air travel, please let me know in the comment section and I will get back to you as soon as possible!
Until next month!

    I am also from Ukraine and on my way back to JFK my British flight was mistakenly refunded by the bank so I had to purchase a LOT ticket. Was very pleased with the experience in a brand new plane and the service was 5 stars compared to how it felt like when I was a kid. My whole life I never knew the translation to English is "currants".

    I think it depends on what you’re looking for. If you just want extra legroom get exit row seats, but if you’re looking for a nicer experience overall I’d go for it. I found it much easier to sleep than economy, which was most important for me.

    I visited Ukraine in 2019 and 2021. Sadly I can not visit Ukraine again anytime soon. I don't want to get into politics but I hope the war will ended soon. Since I will not be able to visit Ukraine this year, I will be visiting Riga and maybe Tallinn in 20 days via Polish airline with a stop in Warsaw. When I booked my flight directly through Polish airline website, I was given the option to buy meal(s) or not. This is very unusual.
