Access to other Oneworld members’ priority booking lines
What the title says really. I have a first class Alaska booking which I cannot amend because it says I have to contact their phone line. This amusingly has, it says, a 10 hour delay…
I am BA GGL.
Does anyone know whether I can use Alaska’s priority lines, which I have located, either because I am travelling in first or because I am a Oneworld Emerald?
I tried to find this on the Oneworld site but could not. Maybe I am a bad reader of websites :-)

There is a thread in the AS forum about the 10 hour wait time message and a number of people have reported much shorter waits.

If you haven't tried already, I'd call in to the BA GGL line and just ask them. I've never done it myself but have heard that AA has something for their EXPs at least where they can put them in the priority queue on at least some partner airlines (JL, BA, IB, if not more).
