RRBWorld,
silver, lucky, you guys!

As for BA, I have mixed experiences. In December, on an award tix, BA did show my oneworld status. I checked in at LHR.
Just last week, I also used an award tix with BA and they didn't show when I checked in at KUL.
I just wanted my status printed out on it since I didn't have my new AA card and didn't want to persuade an agent into letting me into an Executive Lounge at LHR.
Getting back to CX, I just had HKG-NRT this weekend and the business cabin had a lot of op. upgraded passengers -- This I assumed because in the upper cabin, an attendant went to a few select pax to get their meal choices first, before going to take orders from the first to the last rows. Ah, the guy who was ahead of me at the boarding gate was upgraded to first, so the agent said.
