My current strategy is that I requested sticker U/G for both of us, and requested "both or none" option. My desired solution would be to use eVIP for my friend and sticker for me (I'm EXP).

Does AA usually release A for eVIP and X for sticker one at a time, or more than one at a time? Are they likely to release A before they release X?
