For example, for 807 today, this is where you would click to see both lists:

You can view the upgrade list of any flight (even if not flying) on the app too. Just hit "Track a flight" under "More" and type in the flight number and hit the +. It will show both waitlists there.

If you can be upgraded at 72 hrs, but can't check in until 24 hrs. then is it just the mobile app that doesn't provide waitlist information, and is there a way to know where you are at the 72 hr mark for MVPG?

I did just check from Friday nights flight (AS69 SEA-JNU, and I'm in F. Nice. Really nice.

There is no way to see your position on the waitlist prior to 24 hours. You might be able to call though?

It won't me revealed.

Only AS employees have access (restricted on who AFAIK) and it's not something that is shared.
