DL Medallions and AF/KL elites will have upgrade priority on Y fares.

AF/KL (on non-Y fares), AM, AS, and SPG elites are (were?) all coded as UP6. It is unclear whether there is an internal hierarchy within this group. I suspect VS was added to this UP6 group following the introduction of DL upgrade benefits for VS Gold members, but I'm not sure. VA elites do not get complimentary upgrades on DL metal.
