RETURN: LHW46NCZ
Is W the Comfort+ fare bucket? What do all the other codes mean?
xliioper provided the practical answer, but if you're curious:

QHW72NCZ requires Q space and is based on the Q- fare family (Q), is a high-season fare (H), for travel on weekends or market-normed "high period" days of the week (W), a 7-day advance purchase (7), minimum stay of 3 days or Saturday night (2), non-refundable (N), books into Comfort Plus in W class (C), and is in fare series Z.

LHW46NCZ is a W fare with L space, high season weekend, with a 14-day AP and 7-day/Saturday night minimum stay, also non-refundable.
