Not very welcome news. I'm EXP at the moment (will they leave EXPs alone, I wonder?), but I don't see keeping that for many more years, so upgrade charges will definitely figure into my strategy for using stickers.
As justforfun correctly points out, this $50 fee is for upgrade award using mileage, not for using electronic upgrades ("stickers"). An EXP will still be exempt from paying expedite fees. Like everyone else, however, EXPs will still have to pay the co-pay in addition to using mileage for the upgrade.
