First time upgraded on an award ticket today. DFW-FAR tomorrow with my son, both of us just cleared (T27).

Seems AA was being a bit hopeful, though, as we were the only two who were upgraded (judging by the seat map before and after our UGs processed).

If the policy with award upgrades is to upgrade every elite requesting an UG before then upgrading those with award tickets requesting upgrades, I guess there were no elites requesting upgrades on this flight.
