The whole "PriorityAAccess" thing was a mistake from the beginning, IMHO. Just creates confusion....few things make me as angry as when the GA starts boarding by saying: "we are pleased to welcome First Class, EXP, and PriorityAAccess on board." And then about 75 people line up to board my LGA-DFW/ORD flight!
I will have to pay more attention next time. I have never seen or heard of Priority/AAccess boarding with the initial EXP although I sometimes find that Platium is announced. Perhaps this is what you are experiencing and it just seems like all the Priority/AAcess.
