Blimey, getting a bit heated here I think. I am a bmi Captain (not the one in question I might add) and have had the pleasure of an upgrade to club quite a few times with BA and very nice it was to. I do not expect it and would certainly expect to be behind ANY BA staff member in the pecking order, I can assure you that you would be behind any bmi staff on our aircraft and who would expect otherwise?.. .. .The way I see it staff travel is one big co-op, we all need each other to make it work. I have spent years taking BA cabin crew and pilots on the jumpseat when they are trying to get to work at LHR or home after a trip and I am very happy to do it. Likewise I (and other family members) have been well looked after by BA staff. At the moment we can't take other airlines staff on the flightdeck but hopefully it will change in the future, managed to get a BA staff member on a cabin crew jumpseat the other day though.. .. .Lets keep it friendly folks!.
