I am guessing these discounted tickets are in "O" and therefore won't earn any XP ?
Trying to generate (what I assume to be) the same flight on an OTA did mention booking class as I inbound (earning), O outbound (non earning) (link
here). But price is 650. The 400-something (like
here) seems to be restricted to O.
As mentioned, best way to make sure is to call them, but rule of thumb when Air Europa is aggressive, it's always O. Paid less than 1000 for a week-end in NYC from Paris a few months ago, in their new A330 J-seats, a good deal for Lie-flat TATL. But no miles nor XP.
