Changing a GLA-BHD booking (Quick question)

I have a existing booking GLA-BHD (Via LHR), I may need to change to outbound leg, and the flight I'm being offered is GLA-BHD direct on Aer Lingus.

Would I still get lounge access at GLA (As it has a BA Flight number?) and I assume I'd still use BA check in?

Any advice appreciated

You always check in with the operating carrier.

I am afraid you would not get lounge access at GLA - you would have to be gold to get that on a BA marketed EI flight.

Thanks @KARFA, would I still earn tier points on BA marketed EI flight?

If it has a BA flight number, yes to TP and Avios.

The matrix is here: https://www.britishairways.com/en-gb...-avios/flights

See the section on codeshares, but basically if it's got a BA number, it will earn.
