I don’t hold a CCR card (and am very unlikely to ever acquire one), and so my only access is on the rare occasions that I book a BA flight in F.

What seems very clear, based on a range of different reports / opinions here on the thread, is that the standards maintained in the CCR can fluctuate every bit as much as any other element of a BA trip : whether that be the group boarding process, the cleanliness of tables in the GF lounge, the onboard service levels on any given flight (in any cabin), the response offered to feedback or grievances ...... or indeed anything else.

Some BA aficionados might come on to say that they are totally happy with all aspects of their BA travel ; though I suspect that - for a good number of FT-ers - a more realistic, balanced picture (including the CCR) is one characterised by a familiar theme of consistent inconsistency.
