That's outrageous. You must have a very cheap ticket but still.

like

Upgrade priority depends on when you purchased your ticket. Usually if I don’t buy mine two weeks in advanced then I don’t get an upgrade on some popular routes. (I’m EP for what it’s worth)

like

On American it’s not based on when you buy your ticket any more. It’s level of status then 12 month rolling EQD. They changed the algorithm earlier this year

like

This just means exec platinum isnt all that exclusive, and your hard earned 115k miles is accomplished by a lot of other people. Happy Monday!
