Hi there,

BA GCH here who is unsurprisingly looking to jump ship to RJ for future trips. I have over 30 segments booked with OW airlines and my understanding is that this should get me to sapphire with them.

My question relates to to FF info on bookings. If I add my shiny new RJ number to future bookings in order to earn status with them, will this complicate being able to enjoy the benefits that my current gold card allows? Has anyone had experience of this before? Ie- holding BA status whilst simultaneously crediting BA flights elsewhere (with no status with the partner airline). Am I likely to be denied entry to lounges/ priority check- in etc because the initial RJ number they see won’t register as being OW sapphire (at least until I earn this)?

Thanks in advance for any and all help or advice.
