EU (Light & Chaos) Servers High Ping Past Week

Hello! My group (~9 players) of friends and I normally play together a couple of sessions a week and this past week we've noticed that there's a significant heightened ping the last couple of days for EU servers. While few of us who are based in EU regions can still play alright, it is currently very unstable compared to previous weeks and months for those who are just outside of EU/UK regions playing together.

I've noticed that when pinging the servers, I'd normally get 100-150ms, but lately it's been between 200ms-280ms including some rubber-banding and split second spikes every now and then, while few friends are getting what used to be 200ms-250ms but now getting 300-350ms but also massive lag spikes here and there, rendering a few duties, especially high end ones, unplayable.

We've checked our ISPs and even other games/network tests done and nothing has changed, this is particularly only occurring with FFXIV. We've flushed and renewed DNS, made sure no other programs are open that may interfere with network usage, restarted our routers and devices, played during on and off-peak hours, it's all the same high ping still.

Are EU servers maybe facing some issues at this moment/due server upgrades?
Cheers,
