SWU/BXP1/Miles+copay are prioritized ahead of complimentary upgrades *within each status group*.

So in your example it may have gone like this:
  1. CK complimentary upgrade
  2. CK complimentary upgrade
  3. EXP complimentary upgrade
  4. EXP complimentary upgrade
  5. EXP complimentary upgrade
  6. EXP complimentary upgrade
  7. EXP complimentary upgrade
  8. PPro BXP1 (you)
  9. PPro complimentary upgrade
