The upgrade priority is (in Order):

1) Medallion Status
2) Fare Class
3) reserve card holder
4) Corporate traveler
5) if you earned MQM waiver
6) Million Miler status
7) Date and time of request

We have all the same for 1 through 3 but i am a corporate traveler and he is not. He and his companion were upgraded, i was not and there are no more seats left.

I've called Delta and they cant explain why this happened.

Anyone else have a similar issue ???
My understanding is 1 and 5 should be combined. IE DM who qualified and DM with waiver, then PM etc.
