I cringe any time I see someone even thinking about threatening JS access. I always list because I find it easier when I get to the gate and your reservation agents are always great. I'd say you're always welcome on my JS (except I'm only the F/O).
Don't short change yourself there DAL73n. You have power to influence your CA by letting him know someone might be trying to get on (perhaps at the last minute) or be persuasive if the CA does not like the other airline.
I will deny it all day but I let my FO "approve" when I am not there. Of course I will re-verify them later.
