Underlining mine... For the life or me I can't remember ever seeing that before. Does that mean that the cheapest J fares are no longer upgradable using Avios ?
No this is standard annotation and means that you can't upgrade the fair for cash to circumvent the restrictions on the base fare. So if the base fare doesn't allow changes and is non refundable you cannot upgrade the fare by paying the difference to a higher fare bucket which allows flexibility.
