There should be two lists
1 for PremPlus
1 for First
Is your position different on the two lists?
The ranking order of the lists are different ,
paid PremPlus has priority over economy for First and non GS, but upgrade support provided by GS, have priority over all but GS for First.
PremPlus waitlist is purely on travelers status and fare and some other secondary factors.
