But nowhere does that page indicate where partner elites are situated in the upgrade queue.
Given that the page used to say it was behind the medallions, I think it’s safe to assume it still
is. Why would DL secretly place rando ST elites above their own???

Another hint: it’s day of departure. The DL elites have windows.
