As well as AS MVPG75K & MVPG100K.

As an AS 100K, I flew AA LAX-MIA return on the 77W. Upgrade cleared on the outbound at T-72. On the return, I was #1 on the waitlist but dropped to #2 shortly before boarding. I waited for Group 2 boarding - I was in PE sold as MCE anyway. When the gate agent scanned my boarding pass, the system beeped and spat out a J boarding pass. My first op-up on AA. My PE seat was occupied upon departure.
