At YYZ last year my wife and I came back reward J with BA from holiday.

She seemed to deliberately said it loud enough for some of the Y line to hear.

My wife said loudly back "If we were flying Economy, then that's exactly where we would be standing". What was funny though was when this woman got to the desk it turned out she only had an economy ticket herself but was trying to use the J/F line incorrectly by waving her husbands Silver EC card!!. The check-in desk (annoyingly) let her do this on this occasion but did kind of politely reprimand her. We both burst out laughing at her and my wife happily pointed out to her that "well at least for next time you already know where the Y line is". Strangely she did not find this as funny as we did and we waved at her passing through J to get to Y once we had boarded as we settled back into our J seats
