QF Points Upgrades - Changes?

[MelUser]

Noticed this in the fine print regarding QF points upgrades:

"Flight upgrades are not available on heavily discounted fares booked in N, O, P, Q, U, X or Z class"

NOQ are clear - they are all discount economy seats.

U is clear (business via a points upgrade [a personal favourite of mine!]
or redemption seat)

What are PX and Z?

[I know that Z is a discount business seat on star alliance airlines including most notable Lufthansa and United Airlines - which means it is QF's version of I class not that QF sells much I!]

What are PX and Z?

P = First Class Award
X = Economy Class Award
Z = Premium Economy Class Award

As per NM, seems Qantas's legal team have decided to ensure they cover all bases in regard to upgrade awards.

The nett effect is the status quo, as it was a fact that one could never upgrade award flights per se. You could cancel an award booking and rebook in a higher class should availability arise ... and be liable for a penalty points "fee".

And what about R class?

I dont think one would class R as "heavily discounted"
