I mean, that much makes sense. It's not actually a Y fare. It's an R (or O) fare with a booking designator of Y because there's no PE cabin.

I'm not actually sure if they could rebook it as an LH native code, or if that would make the FRA-OSL leg upgradable. But I believe it's something like 25K points to upgrade, right? For a 700-mile flight in Euro Biz, I'd just stay in economy.
