eUpgrade Charts No Longer Distinguish by Distance?

Was just checking out this page and noticed the charts no longer distinguish by distance? Is this intentional and was it ever announced? If so, I seem to have missed it.

on the other charts, such as for South America, it clearly states "upgrades starting at', not sure why it differs for Asia and Australia.

Oh good spot.

But even for those that say "starting at", it's kind of annoying / unhelpful that they don't spell out exactly how many credits will be required anymore?

Especially since I also don't think there's a way to preview credit requirements based on specific routing anymore (please correct me if I'm wrong).

If I'm a new customer to AC and plan on booking a flight from YYZ to SYD in YBO and want to know how many credits it will take to upgrade, as far as I can tell, there is currently no way to find that out the answer before booking.

To be fair, even AC doesn’t seem to know the answer to such questions these days.

You can always search for the flight on aircanada.com, and enable the eUpgrade filter in “Display Options”. Then it will show you number of credits required based on the fare class you’ve chosen. This can be done from the search results page.

Sad but true.
