Well, this thread has disabused me of that, but I have one question that remains, which is do I get OWE benefit at check-in? ie can I skip the humongous Y queue and use first check-in? Suspect I know the answer, but would appreciate confirmation.
Thanks in anticipation....
If booked on the QF codeshare, you will accrue miles and points to BA
Benefits related to OW status apply when travelling on a flight which is both marketed by and operated by a OW carrier; this includes items such as additional baggage allowance, lounge access and business/1st class check in
If you check in online and have no checked luggage, you can bypass the checking, otherwise if you check in online , you can use the queue for those that have checked in online rather than the economy line for those not checked in
