Shareholder, I agree with you. The difference in miles for upgraded flights was compensated by the fact that CP only wanted 85k (and there weren't enough upgrades available on AC to upgrade 80k worth, at least not in North America!).

If it's now 100k on AC with the occasional 25% bonus, and 100k on CP without a 25% bonus, it does make it that much harder on CP (for 100k, for 35k, and even 18k, although if Club now equals Prestige in benefits it's a waste of time anyway).

Either there's a misunderstanding (and CP will start giving 25% bonus irrespective of the rules), or this is another subtle way AC is using to drive CP further down before taking it over.
