P class code used to be for First Class. But some airlines use P class code in their economy fares since most use the more generic term: F.
TK is one, and LX is the other who use P class for their economy class fares.

So the fare is still in economy, its just that the booking engine sees it as First Class. If you book this fare, you will sit in economy class. Cos there is nothing wrong with the fare, its: PLPXX3M
