Cool

I don't think the fare class is shown anywhere on their website (if I'm wrong here, someone will correct me; at least I couldn't find it anywhere). You can see it on the PDF "Ticket & Receipt" your received by e-mail: near the end of it (page 2) under "Fare information" there's "Fare calculation" which shows something like this (for a 2-leg return ticket with a transfer in Dubai):

AAA EK X/DXB EK BBB111.11CGBBRISH EK X/DXB EK AAA111.11CGBBRISH NUC222.22 END ROE1.00
The fare class is the part marked C (might be different for each leg). I think unless you paid a lot for your ticket, it'll not be Y, as this is the "best" (i.e. the most expensive) fare; my tickets show U for Saver and W for Flex.

The other symbols are:
  • AAA - Origin airport IATA code
  • BBB - Destination airport IATA code
  • X/DXB - Transfer in/Dubai airport IATA code
  • EK - Airline IATA code
  • 111.11 - Fare per leg in Neutral Units of Construction (NUC, generally equal to USD 1)
  • 222.22 - Total fare in NUC
  • GBBRISH - Some gibberish I don't understand (anyone care to explain?)
  • END - End of fare calculation
  • ROE1.00 - Rate of exchange from the currency you paid for the ticket into NUC
