Are you sure? Last May I was told to just go to the CIP lounge as SEN in Y. We tried to get into the TK lounge but were denied due to my +3 (wife and kids) and didn't go to the CIP because the flight was boarding.
Technically TK should let a C pax flying *A that day into their lounge, so LH C pax should be able to get into that proverbial lounge paradise
