Not really, I'm guessing it's more that Priority Pass is making the Select option available to financial institutions at a lower cost (or just without those lounges) so that those institutions that negotiate separate agreements with UA/CO can make sure they use their credit card for access to those lounges instead of using the Priority Pass (which is probably favorable financially to the CC companies).

Since the Ameriprise card doesn't have other lounge agreements, I'm guessing they would keep us at the same level, since there is no conflicting agreement.
