What about the higher priority for those who have spent $25,000 on a DL AmEx card this calendar year?
This is purely speculative, but I said earlier that I would think the priority is as listed in the press release, even though it does not explicitly say that, and in the press release it's DL Reserve, Corporate, credit card spend, and finally check-in upgrade request time. They list those four things in order.
