No, you should not assume K is a classic fare! When you book you can decide whether or not you book light, classic, or flex. There is three large columns on the screen with the respective labels and you just choose whatever you will. The website will choose classic by default though.

I am not convinced by this system and find it rather annoying because you can end up with a (somewhat) flexible ticket for less than 250 euros on some routes (e.g. FRA-DRS) while you may pay 500+ euros for a light fare that has no flexibility at all (e.g. FRA-GVA) and even on the same route you may pay more for a less flexible ticket because you end up in a higher fare bucket… But apparently this is what customers want or at least LH says so…
