Some airlines have different rules for flights departing outside the US and the rules are confusing to read. The fare class is N, FBC= KAA4AFBN.

Thanks for your indulgence.
1 - Fare class N is not used for TPAC. It’s domestic Basic Economy.
2 - The fare basis you have listed is also Basic Economy.
3 - Non-BE tickets will retain credit for the return, but it’ll have to be used under the conditions of the original fare, which essentially means that you need to use it to return to China.
