Does anyone know when AS would be updating its progress status? It's still displaying old qualification requirements. Maybe after it joins OW (March 31, 2021)?

I don't know, but FWIW, I didn't receive my 50K bonus RDM for renewing 75K until after the AS mileage gauge passed 75k miles. (Even though I already had 85k+ miles on AA/AS)

We must have Disney IT working this. A different DP: my status updated to 75K and the 50k bonus posted after I passed 75k on the partner gauge. I haven't yet hit 75k AS miles.

To provide another DP, I also received the 50K bonus after hitting 75K flying AA/AS. Didn't happen simultaneously along with the flight, but happened a short time afterwards.
