Which really now with Branded Fares, generalizing everything under one fare class letter is moot, hence my distinction.

To say "M" is expensive is like saying all Nissan car models are expensive.


Added: and really, I was being too restrictive in my explanation as well... it's actually ALL M FLEX is 100% for all destinations (not just M high flex), and it has always been this way.

I clarified this upthread prior to your post.

But that wasn't my point. I'm still correct in stating M "high flex" earns 100%, which was simply a more restrictive statement than M Flex in general.
The fact is, all M Flex fares earn 100% (not 50%) to all destinations.
I moved the conversation over to the Branded Fares thread, where it belongs.

Branded Fares; AC changes booking classes/fare classes for Tango & Flex
