Is 7018 preferring 19094 over 701 regardless of AS-PATH length? the convention is that, if 19094 is a customer of 7018, then it will always prefer it.
and it was confirmed that this is the case for the prefix in question
And this is a good reason not to cross "tiers" of your transit providers. Either have both "transit free" or both should have transit.
why? when it get up to tier-1s it will be the same, the one(s) who heard it from customers will prefer the customers. and tier-Ns should be preferring customer routes as well; see discussion here between vaf, asp, and me in about '96. randy
