As Mr Bean stated, it is R class which is Premium Economy. @:-)
The same issue popped up when BA discontinued Concorde and changed R class to discount economy. Some purchased discount economy tickets with confirmation stating Supersonic class. I don't think any of them managed to fly on the Concorde.

Thanks for giving us a heads up guys before anyone actually booked it.

I had the same "OMG" reaction using ITA to find J fares LAX-SYD. I tried sending a "feedback" message to ITA but it bounced with a server error note.

austrian J fare (from CDG, LYS, NCE)
hi all,
austrian posted another nice J fare starting from CDG, LYS, or NCE to NRT,NYC,PEK,DXB,DEL, or IAD for 1390E. using the promo austrianwinter it drops down to 1200E.
3 days minimum stays or a saturday night. pretty good for a MR to NRT for 1200E gets you 30K miles (including the M&M exec bonus) so about 4cts/mile.
hope this might be useful to some of us, as i am already booked on the last austrian offer to pek in jan. I guess i could do a long weekend in nrt in feb.

Booking class R =/= F on QF (anymore). It is only Premium Y now.

ITA is not always accurate with booking code and class of service matching.

There are only 26 letters in English alphabet. @:-) I have seen some consolidator fares on some Asian airlines book into @ class lately. Maybe we will see #/%/$/&/^ classes soon.
