ZED fares are actually of three types - YR1, YR2 and CR2.

The YR2 type ZED is by far the most common and is often referred to as "ZED" in its own right. The YR2 permits space available travel in Economy Class only.

The YR1 permits confirmed travel in Economy Class and the CR2 permits space available travel in Business Class. Most concurrences do not include YR1 or CR2 and hence their use is not widespread.

Although the above regulations exist in theory, you should be well aware that like anything in the airline industry, what happens at the gate stays at the gate.
