Yes, but with AA using Rolling 12month LP's as their main tiebreaker for EXP's complementary upgrades, giving legacy mega million milers EXP status is of minimal impact to me as an active flyer.

I do wish it were lower, as these are out of reach for me as a domestic road warrior, but it's an upgrade over what it was.
