That is consistent with the fact that you pay the co-pay when claiming the award so I would expect that upgrades claimed before Oct 1st will be at the current prices not the new price.
Thanks, I guess I wasn't sure about the meaning of the phrase "claim"... whether that meant the original requesting of an upgrade even on waitlist (which is what your post suggests) or when you actual got it. This except from the recent e-mail from AA confirms the first interpretation:
The current award structure will apply to members who request upgrade awards prior to October 1.
