This list may cover all purchased ticket fares but may not be complete. When booking award flights on Westjet (with Westjet flight numbers) using Delta miles, the fare code is "V". It does not come with a free seat assignment until the day of departure, so I guess for all intents and purposes it is equivalent to "Econo"?

Bought an EconoFlex fare yesterday, and my eTicket shows a fare basis beginning with L (but my emailed itinerary and receipt shows no confirmation of fare type bought apart from "economy").
Just got off the phone with WS to confirm (in case there had been a SNAFU, in which case I'd cancel within my 24 hours of purchasing) - the agent immediately confirmed it was EconoFlex as soon as a gave them my PNR (and noted they couldn't see what I have on the email and eTicket PDF that I was emailed).
My concern here is that I was planning to credit this to FlyingBlue, and if they only parse the first letter of the fare basis, I stand to get 20% for what looks like an L fare from the fare basis - instead of 100% (which is what I understand EconoFlex to be - I think the agent said it should book in to B?)
Has anyone else experienced similar?
Full fare basis code is LCQD0LFW, by the way.
