What is X Class?
What is X class on CO? How does it differ from the other CO discount coach fare classes? Thanks.

It's the penultimate low fare class of the 14 CO coach fare classes (yes, they have 14). Only "L" is lower.

X Class!
I thought that "T" and "Q" are the two lowest. What are they?

I think they used to be the lowest but CO discovered a few months ago that they weren't quite using all the letters that they could. So, the alphabet soup of coach class fare categories from low to high is now as follows:

LOW ------- HIGH

X Fare Class is the fare class typically used for Continental's super low fare EWR-Transcon for after sept4 to dec31... They are indeed just about as low as you can go, only lower being L Fare Class...

These fares go some what quick...
