The looks I get from the operating crew when showing my boarding pass… automatically people think I’m a massive ****** for using my title.

So two things… firstly, don’t use it outside of your specific work environment. Secondly, if you see someone with CPT on their boarding pass spare a thought for them because they probably didn’t do it themselves and feel like a tool!

(edit reason - typo)
I get the same - name and CAPT on tickets booked by company for travel in other airlines. But more often then not has lead to subsequent conversation and exemplary and attentive food and beverage service. YMMV
