but if when purchasing the ticket one specifies B class and it books into B, I would expect PZ to credit as ZB, even when crediting to United. I guess the lesson here is booking class can be different than fare basis. I probably knew this but haven’t run into it lately.

PZ is more important for sure but requalification was also a goal. I’ll have them try and email with receipt and boarding pass (though boarding pass just says business but at least the ticket number still matches on the BP matches the receipt).
