FiNNAIR Business "r "some of sectors what does it mean?

[Kitkathai]

Hi I am a newbie and have been a frequent flyer with Qantas and Thai for a long time. I am ticketed on a paid for ( non points) Business Finnair and note some sectors are "r" . I cant seem to find what this means for my travel. Can someone explain as there is nothing on the Finnair website about this. Flying in July. Hope it doesn't mean I will be downgraded if the flight is full. Can somebody explain please.

This appears to have the answer - and a caution:

Finnair Is Introducing A New Business Class Fare (And You Should Be Careful)

Recent news out of Finnair suggests that the airline is set to follow Emirates' example and, from later this year, offer a Business Class fare that doesn't come with all of the usual benefits associated with Business Class travel.

I appears to be the 'higher' Business tier, above 'Business light'.

Which is a good thing for non-status PAX.

But for QF WP and other OWEs, the new lite fares are a compelling option.
