I applied swu to a trip I booked (for family members, not myself).
When viewing the itinarary today on aa.com, in the "Upgrade Your Trip" segment, I see the attached image.
Specifically, the third column header is "Upgrade?" and the corresponding content is "Confirmed".
But the seats are still in Y.

However, in a different trip for the same passenger, I also called to apply swu but when viewing it in the same manner, there's no presence of "upgrade your trip" information at all.

Does “confirmed" here simply mean that my request to apply swu was received, instead of whether it's been processed? When does this "upgrade your trip" section show up in trips I booked for other people, and when is it not shown?

Thanks.
