I'm just looking at flights, trying to plan my travel so as to maximise my status credits, and I am somewhat confused (not that this is an uncommon state of brain for me!). On the "Earning Status Credit" page of the Velocity website, it refers to Discount Economy, Full Fare Economy etc, but whe you book flights, it refers to Saver, Flexi etc. So, my question is, am I safe to assume that Save equates to Discount Economy, Flexi to Full Fare Economy and so on. Or is there somewhere i can look to figure this all out.

Thanx in advance! :)

It would be nice if they used the same names everywhere, huh!

You're right – basically:

Discount Economy = Saver
Full Fare Economy = Flexi

If you want to confirm it, you can match the actual fare class you're booking (shown in the fare rules on the last page of booking – first letter in a six-character code) with this: https://www.velocityfrequentflyer.com/content/Info/StatusEarnFareClass/
