That's actually how I ended up getting here.
I have been watching more and more of the UA mileage run deals. Seems like every new fare is N class. I also found a couple of my own that were decent, but all N fares.
I noticed that N doesn't earn any miles on Aegean, Lufthansa, and Thai, among others (the only ones I checked). Is anyone else noticing a lot more of these fares?

The BWI-SAN runs were all in N, the cheapest of the NYC-Hawaii runs were all in N and the ANC runs are all in N...
A month ago I hadn't heard of N, but we've reached a new low in UA ;-) From G to N...

Sorry if this has come up already but what if:
The ticket I purchased on United shows N but the boarding pass for the same flights shows Y class?
I want these miles to be credited to my Miles and More account. Anyone has had any experience and knows if it make sense to mail in the original boarding passes to Miles and More headquarters in Santa Clarita, CA, or will they just determine it is 0?

BPs tend to show the cabin, not the fare class. BP is the wrong place to be looking for the fare class.
N fare class is now the rock bottom UA economy fare. Previously it was industry fare and definitively non-mileage. M&M on lh.com seems to be treating it as the older industry fare. My guess is you will get either zero or 50% at best -- probably better to go to the M&M forum to ask the question.

I just booked 4 N IAH-GDL for $271 each about a $500 discount from normal price. It came and went in half an hour though. Is there a way to exclusively search for codes to book?
