BHD Lounge access on BA ticketed/EI codeshare flight

[Mods, appreciate this is a well-trodden path; feel free to move thread...]

Hi:

It's been a while since I've done this and I know it's a confusing area, so would appreciate a clarification...

Party of four (including 1 GCH, 2 SCHs) travelling BHD to LHR on a BA flight number, but it's the codeshare flight operated by EI. Can someone confirm the BA Lounge access we should expect at BHD?

I seem to recall some restrictions/difficulties around this.

Thanks!

AFAIK, as it's BA codeshare you get the normal +1

For a GCH on a BA codeshare operated by a non-oneworld airline you get access if on a BA 125-... issued ticket. You can take a guest but the lounge eligibility guide does say the guest should be on a BA operated flight (although I imagine they may allow it if they with on the same EI flight).

There is no lounge entitlement for an SCH.

So out of your party the GCH could get in (provided it is a 125-... ticket) and possible guest one, but the remaining two passengers wouldn't have access.

EDIT: actually is there some special arrangement between BA and EI on this route? I seem to remember there is something on DUB-LHR so perhaps there is here too? If not then the above applies.
