My BA RTW rules for tickets issued in Sterling state that

"when the class of service for the fare is not offered book in the next lower class of service using the booking codes

A/D/M on all OneWorld airlines, except use
Y/Y/M on AY, EI LA & LP Domestic, and
A/C/Q on GF, and
J/D/V on PH

How do you interpret this to mean that your ticket should show Y class on a route where only Economy is offered?

Because both of the flights I previously referred to are LA and LP domestic routes. As your extract from the rules states: "use
Y/Y/M on AY, EI, LA & LP Domestic".

For all other OW carriers where no J cabin is available, M would be the correct booking class to use.

As ExMo said in his post, it's not that easy to intepret. My earlier point is that OW airlines should be the very people who understand these rules thoroughly.
