What makes the world's best premium economy cabin so special? I board an EVA Air flight to find out.

The Taiwanese airline received the trophy for “best premium economy class” during the latest “Aviation Oscars”. - the annual Skytrax World Airline Awards. Additionally, it was named the ninth best airline in the world.
