Worth knowing. I was misled by the signs that said "British Airways customers enter by Door 3 only".

Agreed. I couldn't quite believe that they would do this for all J/F/Gold/Silver passengers since it was not a very well-structured process (and the BA colleague seemed to have to argue with the security guard on Door 3 about letting me jump the queue). I did have a little twinge of guilt as I jumped the queue but only a little tinge - but I agree it adds the potential for more chaos in the long run rather than less.
