Not sure the numbers of EXP have gone down but on a different subject, the lounges seem more crowded than ever.
Gotta agree with you re: getting more upgrades. I'm EXP and since Aug, I've been upgraded on 7 of 10 domestic legs (3 of those Transcon). I will achieve just over minimum thresholds so it's not like I'm killing it on EQD. But that's enough to keep me happy. Inevitably, the number of EXP will go down as the level has become harder to achieve.
