Any difference between an "A" Booking Code and a "P"?
I was just booking some travel in "discount first" and the fare was listed as a "P" fare...I have booked discount first many times as an "A" fare...is there a meaningful difference between an "A" and "P" fare in the friendly skies?

rar is correct. A has less availability (and usually cost less) than P, if there are both fares in the market. Both will get you the same seat, same service...just price and availability are the (2) fundamental differences.
