By āpremiumā you mean ācorrectā. 
Jokes aside, both are correct ways of spelling and mean the same thing.

In my opinion and the way I see it, aeroplane is a more āscientificā way to say airplane which is what is used in everyday language (eventhough I have no idea if in he UK or other parts of the world they use aeroplane instead of airplane in everyday language) pretty much like fridge and refrigerator.
BUT,
Given the fact that the word has greek roots (Ī±ĪµĻĪæĻĪ»Ī¬Ī½Īæ/aeroplane, which means craft of the air, basically equal to aircraft even though I suppose aircraft is anything man made capable of flying) I suppose that aeroplane is more correct since in greek we use āĪ±ĪĻĪ±Ļ/aerasā and āĻĪ»Ī¬Ī½Īæ/planeā which means craft. So itās kinda getting a word which half of it is in one language and the other half is on a different one, though I doubt that anyone really cares.
(PS, shall I give up on my dream of becoming a pilot and become a greek/English teacher instead lol)
