I rushed to make several Priority Bookings before March 1 and made a mistake on one of them. When I called after March 1 to correct the error the agent suggested I cancel and re-book since they said imposition of the limit of Priority Bookings had been delayed.
Does anyone know when the limit will come into affect, if indeed, the start was delayed?

If it's that hard to implement, I think they're going to end up canceling that restriction and doing something else.
It really doesn't make much sense anyway. 1 passenger on 10 one way Y domestic flights is very different than a family on 10 round trip international J flights, but they're both counted the same.

Implementing a rule to curb a few dozen people. Way too costly.

Until I read it was delayed I have been reluctant to use any IKK for one person one way domestic rewards (which can be quite valuable). I wanted to save some of my redemptions for round trip business class tickets for 2+. Now I've been able to book one flight without that fear.

New Bar on Altitude dashboard
Does anyone know what the new bar on the altitude dashboard is for. It says Priority Rewards available I'm at maybe 10 maybe just shy of 10. when I click the question box it says it refers to AQD's. I'm not sure what I've spent but its a lot more than 10,0000 dollars if that's what its referring to.
Does anyone have any insight on this?

It's obvious, it has a handy '?' information popup window:
"This chart shows your Altitude Qualifying Dollars (AQD) earned since January 1 on eligible flights. AQD represent the monetary value associated with an eligible ticket and, when combined with the number of Altitude Qualifying Miles (AQM) or Altitude Qualifying Segments (AQS) you fly, will determine your Altitude status."

That is the new "Only 10 Priority Rewards" bookings allow per member started this year.
The said they were going to add this feature to the dashboard last week (or the week before), I guess AC IT finally get that to work.... almost.. as you stated, when you click on the ? it state:

This was announced last year as part of the changes to Altitude, and the story was posted again on AC.Com recently

Can someone post a screenshot of this? Because once again, it's not showing up for me, and there's nothing in the page source either.
