Can anyone tell me what Class H and Class V are? We have tickets in both of these classes.

Thank you!

When airlines set their fares, they divide their seating into
"classes", which are based on an analysis of past passenger purchases.
Suppose you have a 100 seat airliner going from ATL to MCO. The rates
might break down on a particular day as follows:

30 seats at $200 round trip, 30 days in advance
20 seats at $225 RT, 21 days in advance
20 seats at $250 RT, 14 days in advance
20 seats at $300 RT, 7 days in advance
10 seats at $350 RT, full fare, available until the last minute.

Now if the time has elapsed within a given price group, then the fare
will go up to the rate of the next price group. If they sell the quota
of tickets for a price group, even if the time has not elapsed, then
they can only sell you tickets at the next rate group price (which is
naturally higher). So it can pay to make your reservations way in
advance. (The number of seats available at each fare varies from day
to day, depending on the airline's yield management .)

There are five regular classes of service: First, Business, Standard,
Coach and Thrift. Standard is practically nonexistent these days.
Fares usually drop with lower class service. For each class except
Standard there are six main types of reduced-fare tickets: discounted,
night, offpeak, weekend, advance purchase, and excursion fare.

The following chart gives some of the letters used to designate each
class of service:
Class..................Regular.... Premium.... Discounted
Business Class...C...............J................ D
Standard............S ..............W.............. -
Coach Economy. Y ..............- ............... B, H, M, Q, T
Thrift ............... K .............- ............... L, V
