Only options
  1. to have etihad guest status silver or above
  2. flying to AUH with SV or KL
Unfortunately, it’s not as simple with code-shares for lounge acess. It all depends what kind of agreement the airlines have and sometimes, it can include lounge access at the hubs. For sure a lounge access is never (or extremely rarely) at a final destination beyond a connecting point. In the example above, a FB Gold flying Y on CDG-AUH-Pakistan will never have lounge access in Pakistan.
To know if you have lounge access, you need to look at the partner page of AF website
