The board still excluded oneworld elites as of the end of May; only those departing in a F/J-cabin and BA elites are allowed to use them.
Agreed that the boards at FastTrack only specifically mention BA elites, however in my experience (around 15 trips per year) I have never had a problem using FastTrack as a oneworld elite.

Your experience highlights an inconsistency, which I guess emphasises the central point that being in an alliance should encourage areas of consistency across the different members. We can but hope
