I doubt they will abandon the differential pricing scheme for C+ fares; I assume this just lets them better capacity control the C+ cabin (i.e. if it's booked to N-3, they might only sell a higher W fare even though U or X is available).

Two-letter S* codes for various types of non-paid C+:

Dual character ‘S’ class will still be utilized for Comfort+ upgrade certificates. Due to a GDS limitation of only being able to display a single class of service, travel agents will see ‘S’ class for all of the following 'S’ class booking options, even though they may be booked as a dual character class of service:
  • Revenue (S)
  • SkyMiles Award (SN)
  • Complimentary Medallion upgrade (SU)
  • SkyMiles Global or Regional upgrade (SY)
  • eNCI upgrade certificate (SY)
