Different airlines have different meanings for booking classes. R on QF, for example, is a premium economy booking class, but on BA it's now a business booking class. So there is no natural read-across from any airline to any other airline.

For future reference, QF makes it easy to tell in advance whether there may be such a problem. The "airline earning table" is here: http://www.qantas.com.au/fflyer/dyn/...m/terms#jump25
