Did Delta fix the upgrade list on the website?
I was checking on my flight and I clicked "view upgrade list" knowing that it's almost always wrong; I noticed for the first time the list now shows upgrade and standby passengers separately. Has anyone else seen this, and is it reliable?

Welcome to FT! It was changed a while ago, and appears to be as reliable as the app.

Good. Hopefully now they can fix the incorrect showing of the UG list in the Iphone app when doing a 2 segment trip.

I'm not sure if it is just my phone, but the app does not correctly display the UG list for the second segment, it always pull the old information from the first segment (I have to watch the gate screens to get the right info for the second segment).

Both have always worked for me 99+% of the time. YMMV.

It's a timing thing. The upgrade list for the first segment populates at T-24 for that segment, and then at T-24 for the departure time of the second segment.

I'm not convinced that it's fixed. For my most recent flight, I saw a single wait list on the app which was called an upgrade list but actually it was the standby list for non revs hoping to get BE seats.

On my most recent experience, it showed the list for the first flight about half of the time, but other times (up to the scheduled departure time of the second flight) it showed the apparently correct "upgrade" list for the second flight but was actually the standby list for nonrevs hoping to get onto the second flight in BE.
