Lounge Access on Codeshare
Hello
I am looking at booking a flight from TPE to HKG one way.
The 18:10 flight is a codeshare, ticketed by Hong Kong Airlines but operated by Eva Air. It's cheaper purchased through Hong Kong Airlines than it is direct with Eva Air
As a *A-Gold, would i be able to use the Eva Air Business check-in and lounge in TPE? Even though the ticket was bought through Hong Kong Airlines?
Thanks in advance

You should be able to as entry is generally based on metal rather than marketing carrier. I am aware of more than a few *G's who have flown on non-Star marketed flights but operated by Star and still received their benefits (traveling in Y).
