LONE4 always books into L. If you are getting an M fare, you are buying some other form of RTW product and not a OneWorldExplorer LONE4. M is much more desirable than L, for lots of reasons (greater availability, for example). There are dozens of different RTW products, and each has some reason for being (some advantage over the others). For maximizing mileage the xONEx products are far superior (really twice around the world in terms of miles).
