It is a Web Promotion fare. The fare comparison shows no difference to the other fares, other than rebooking/refund conditions.
If I look at the seat map on Expertflyer, nobody is seated in rows 1-16, which is why I wondered whether it is a general block that is released at some point (OLCI?) or whether one could pay for a seat further up front.
