Any idea if that both those changes are under "Later in 2017" means that the prioritization has also changed or if its just for award upgrades?
From casual observations the SWU prioritization to rolling EQD spend after status tier hasn't been implemented - yet. Perhaps AA will announce it, but it seems the day of announcements far in advance is in our past.

The EP UDU upgrades on "domestic" (North and Central America, Caribbean iirc) has been in place for at least a few days from what I'm seeing reported, but as there was no report or thread here, I thought I'd start this one.
