My concern is not about AAdvantage members on BA flights but AAdvantage members on AA flights.
Upon arrival at LHR T3 we are now going to be in a position where BAEC members on the flight, not in J or F cabin can use the AA arrivals lounge where AAdvantage members of the same status level cannot.
These changes are rather forcibly ramming home the point that AAdvantage members are 2nd class citizens in this new realigned world even when it comes to using facilities run for our own airline.
