Oops, apologies. I was mistakenly looking at QR chart in the screenshot above. Should have been more careful to refer to the AS chart before making post. At any rate, it's still appropriate to say that the "Light", "Value", "Comfort", and "Plus" fare brandings used by FJ don't actually map to specific fare classes and you don't really know what you will be getting simply based on those brandings.

Also, while EF doesn't show them for some reason, there also look to be 'O', 'Q', 'S', 'V', and 'L' class fare filings on NAN-SUV (in addition to Y/B/H) with 'O' fares being the cheapest on the route. As noted upthread, ITA Matrix will show booking class/fare basis codes on fares. It will show the cheapest "Light" fares by default, but upfaring to "Value", "Comfort", or "Plus" fares from a "Light" fare won't change your actual booking class on a flight. The first 3 flights listed below have 'O' fare class availability with the "Light" O fares pricing at FJD 98.
