You can book vietnam with KE and AF, qantas with BA.
I only want to fly economy. I have never flow in J or F and have no need to do so, whether it's a short or longhaul flight.
Then you're not going to get the most value from miles. In fact, i'd say flying Y in long haul is actually worse
that's a pretty good selling point for UR.
It's also possible to accumulate UR by shopping online , not so for MR and SPG
