This implies the two cards may coexist for a while or perhaps they won't do forced conversion (I can dream).
I suspect that if they were to convert Prestige Card holders it would not be until 2026, because anyone who already paid their AF for 2025 would be expecting to have until 12/31/25 to use their $250 annual travel credit and potentially the 2 fourth night free hotel res.
So anyone who applies for the Strata Elite now could be holding both cards in tandem for a bit.
