- J: "Award": "AAnytime Award travel"
Well in reality J and F are full fare J and F and are not the classes that people want to use e.g. nobody wants to do AAnytime awards at double the tariff. I have to say that you did say and quoted yourself that the "upgrade classes" are in green. Unless someone has C, T, U, A, R and X you haven't got the straight dope, albeit this service is free.
