By the sound of what's been happening since opening, I suspect they (AA BA) don't know themselves!

It is disappointing they can't get their access rules fixed.

I still suspect GGL will get access as long as flying AA or BA, any cabin, any route , connection or otherwise, despite the GGL agent referenced in post above saying different.

I too have been told by the GGL team about access. The reply I got was you do as GGL get access.

I'm pretty confident that GGLs do get access, but nothing now would surprise me now really.
