Fare Class Explanation ??
Can anyone explain the differences between the fare classes? (i.e Y,H,K,B,V,Q,T and any others) I understand what Y class is, but how about the rest?

Y is full fare coach, the others are discounted coach. Each fare "bucket" is alloted x number of seats per flight based on whatever the crystal ball in yield management says the market will bear.

E is domestic standard First Class award
W is SleazyPass Coach award (forget if it's domestic of international)
but, there was a thread in the past that listed fare codes and flyertalkers kept adding to the list.

EG is a standard BF (BusinessFirst) award. i am not sure if this is the special code for platinum standard BF awards or if it is any standard BF awards (assuming those exist).

i actually think there is a better thread out there that explains this. it had a pretty comprehensive list--even better than dbaker's list. but, i have no clue how to post links.
