Just posted this in the Eva thread but realised this is probably a much better place. Sorry, I'm new!

I have E+ status with Turkish = SA Gold, but I'm moving to Taiwan in a few weeks so I want to switch to Eva. I know status matching within an alliance isn't going to happen and I'll have to earn up again but my question is this: SA Gold gives me lounge access travelling on Eva normally but does that still apply when I whip out my TK card if have a non-status Eva number printed on my boarding pass?

I know I could probably solve this by claiming all flights after the fact but I'm hoping it isn't necessary because I forget to do it most of the time.
