Essentially, the elite levels do not matter much in terms of upgrade priority. What matters is the LPs. In your flights above, you had 16 people that had more LPs than you did. This won't change regardless if the EXP level get raised or not. If the EXP level was currently at 300k, you would probably be a PP, and you would still be #17 on the upgrade list, because you simply did not have enough LPs at that moment compared to the competition (the other 16 people above you). It is simple logic.

When you get to 300k LPs, you will be really competitive in tight markets. 200k LPs is simply low in competitive markets for upgrades.
