I was going to give you a specific example, but weirdly the fare class of the return leg seems to depend on the day I choose for my outbound leg. But as an example, if you choose the LGW - BKK at 2115 on 14th Feb outbound, and the BKK-DOH-LHR at 2020 (arriving at 0550) on 24th Feb return, you see the Y business class for the QR flight when booking through the BA app/website. Choosing other outbound days sometimes give a D fare for the same return flight, which I understand to be business? I'm very confused if I'm honest!
