Looking to book a return flight from LHR to BKK, via DOH, business class, booking via the BA app/website. However, one of the options I'm considering lists fare class Y for business for the return BKK - DOH leg with QR.

My understanding was Y was an economy seat. Am I being charged business-class prices for an economy-class seat by QR? Is this a bug at BA's end, or does Y-class mean something different in Qatar?

Seemingly I can't attach an image since I'm new, but flight details state "Business (Y), First (J)", and since J is usually a business class fare, it sounds like they still have business seats available, so it's doesn't sound like they're bunging me in economy because they're out of room?

TIA
If you can give the dates out and back folk here will be able to give you a bit more insight.
