I thought only KLM GE/PE had access to Jet Airways lounges. Isn't BA only a partner for redeeming Jet Airways miles?
FYI, a Diners Club card will get you access to the Jet Airways lounge in BOM (and domestic lounges in DEL, MAA and CCU as well - I just don't know if they're Jet Airways lounges).

No, you don't. BA used to have a reasonably close FF tie up with Jet (and your BA EC number may well appear on a 9W BP if booked in conjunction with a BA ticket) but you don't earn anything or get any special benefits. Should your visit include BLR for example, the 'lounge access' entitles you to a free drink and snack in the airport restaurant - and that's it. You are missing a bit more in DEL or BOM, but not much.
Good airlines though.
