Thanks ST! A very nice fare - but I'm running into problems with finding it outside ITA. The lovely Matrix gives €1603 29NOV 05DEC, but elsewhere online...

Yet according to Miles&Smiles (TK's FFP):
  • Comfort Class is U, A and O
  • Business is C, D, K and J

On United TK J is discounted business, gets 100 %
See http://www.united.com/CMS/en-US/Mark...spx?ItemId=306

Miles and more is business with 150 % (other business fare classes are 200 %) / but only 25 % of that for status

I couldn't get the fare to work on TKs site but it seems to be bookable on OTAs (Orbitz specifically).

Seeing fares for $2434 (US) which seems about right for the currency conversion.

It's bookable on the TK website for EUR1613, i.e. Jan 23 to Jan 26, and is definitely being sold as business class, not Y+

You can save a couple of EUR by going from RTM by the look of it, too...

The dates seem to be more restricted on the TK web site. I was using the English/International site and put in dates that I could get on ITA and Orbitz but was seeing nothing under EU3000.

Yep, J is business but air canada AP shows it as comfort for 110% vs 125% business.
