Very disappointing experience.
The link you posted is to the Russian AF site. I'm sure it's not been updated for years.
All fares can be booked under 3 modalities : light, standard and Flex.
V fare was likely the lowest fare available at time of your booking. If you want a specific (higher) fare, you need to call to have it, as booking on the website will always be in the lowest fare available.
