These codes must be airline specific, Aer Lingus uses at least A, R, L, S, W, Z for various fares on their standard single class economy EU flights - just going through a few years booking confirmations. R and A are clearly not being used as detailed here...

A would appear to be used for "taxes and charges only" tickets (0.00 flight element); can't identify the rest. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 109.77.225.131 (talk) 19:21, 14 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

"W, T often refer to premium economy class, and B, H, K, L, M, N, Q, T, V, X generally to various types of discounted or restricted economy class tickets."

So, supposedly T is premium economy, but T is discounted economy?

In my experience it's the latter. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.195.81.169 (talk) 23:44, 3 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Mixing up Fare Basis and Booking Class[edit]

This article covers both Fare Basis and Booking Class. They are not the same thing at all. A Fare Basis can be 1-8 alphanumeric characters, and is used to determine the price and restrictions on a ticket. A Booking Class or Reservation Booking Designator (RBD) is used for availability calculations, and is 1-2 alpha characters. --Macrakis (talk) 22:10, 7 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The link in references does not work[edit]

It should be fixed or removed — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.254.148.187 (talk) 10:23, 2 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
