Uh-oh.

First of all, I asked how exactly upgrades would be prioritized:
- In other words, for an Alaska flight, would all Mileage Plan elite members clear before all AAdvantage elite members (and vice versa, in which case this would be of limited value)?
- He said he expected the situation to be better for reciprocity than I described, which makes me think that tiers will somehow be integrated; in other words, for an Alaska flight, maybe Alaska MVP Gold 75K members would clear first, followed by American Executive Platinum members, or something like that (that’s purely speculation on my part)
Ouch if true for MVPGs/MVPs.
