SQ/NZ Booking Class Mapping
Hi all,
In case you may be interested, SQ have re-mapped some of their booking classes when booked as SQ but operated by NZ. See below for details for the most up-to-date mapping guide.
SQ = NZ
Business
Z = C
C = D
J = Z
U = Z
D = J
Premium Economy
S = U
T = E
P = O
L = O
R = A
Economy
Y = Y
B = B
E = M
M = H
H = Q
W = V
Q = L
N = S
V = G

Nice. Ive got a flight in U next week that usually gets J points so wonder if Ill get Z points now or if only for bookings after a certain date. Will report back.

I suspect you'll get J points. It's likely that J was locked-in at time of booking. Changing your RBD on NZ-metal would require a reissue of your ticket.

I don't have any info on this to confirm either way. However, it is the case for premium cabin classes so would assume it's largely true for the Y cabin as well
