ANA Ticketing Codes
Was looking at http://SeatCounter.com, regarding upgrade availability, and was wondering if anyone has benefited from that site? I didn't understand the "Availability by Booking Class" info. So I found the following from the United Forum. How similar are these ticketing codes compared to those of ANA?
A = Discounted Fare First Class. Round The World First is booked in this class.
B = Almost Full Fare Economy with minimal restrictions - also used Star * RTW
C = Full Fare Unrestricted Business Class
D = Discounted Fare Business - used also on all "Business" Class Star RTW fares
E = 'Ted' and some low web/discount fares from early 2005. Now officially elevated to above H class!
F = Full Fare Unrestricted First Class
G = Travel Industry Economy Class fares
H = Higher level Economy Class with few restrictions. Some "RTW" coach is H
I = Business Class Upgrade class from Economy (Better known as 'NC' class)
K = Seasonal Economy Promotional Fares/Reduced Fare Gov’t contract etc
L = Discount Fare Economy with a lot of restrictions
M = Almost Full Fare Economy with few restrictions
N = Economy Class AWARD TICKET (Better known as 'XY' class)
O = Business Class AWARD TICKET (Better known as 'XC' class)
P = Premium USA Transcon First Class on 3 classers
Q = Discount Economy with moderate restrictions. (Bereavement tix are in Q)
R = First Class AWARD TICKET (Better known as 'XF' class)
S = Real Lowball coach with lot of restrictions. Reports that some are not mile earning ex UK/Brazil etc.
T = Heavy discount Fare Economy - often with a lot of restrictions
U = Showed up Nov/03 as booking class for "TED" also in mid 2005 a high level mainline class!
V = Discount Fare Economy often with a lot of restrictions
W = Discount Fare Economy often with many restrictions
X = First Class UPGRADE AWARD from paid Business* (Better known as 'NF')
Y = Full Fare unrestricted Economy class
Z = Heavily discounted Business Class - generally NOT "legally" upgradeable.
Cheers!

Well...
These are fare classes and how they relate to mileage accrual/class of service bonus. I'm not sure what classes NH books awards/upgrades into.
As per the ANA USA Platinum Desk on 9/3/04:
Class of Service Bonus:
150%=F, A
125%=C,D,Z, and sometimes J
100%=Y
70%=B, H, K, L, Q, S, W also M’s from USA and G’s from Japan
50%=G’s from USA and M, T from Japan
Overall you can see the general allignment with UA.
F Full Fare First
A Discounted First
C Full Fare Business
D Discounted Business
J (I've never seen an NH J class)
Z Biz Wari is ticketed in Z class
Y Full Fare Economy
B This usually allows a change to the return date with a 20,000 fee
H
K
L
Q
S
W
M,G,T (assorted discounted fares based on origin)
Once you get below the Y, you begin to run into an assortment of rules pertaining to upgrade eligibility which differ based on ticketing region.
Anyone else want to take a stab at this?
