I cannot access the reservation online via Air France/KLM only via OU. As a Delta GM (Elite Plus), will AF recognize my status for lounge access etc. on this flight? I tried calling both OU and AF but neither would let me add my DL SkyMiles number to the reservation. I'm going to obviously inquire about it during check-in but was just curious if there were any rules/experiences in this scenario.
DP on this scenario (OU ticketed, AF operated flight). I was able to use the Sky Priority check-in at CDG by showing my DL GM card. They would not however let my companion accompany me even though they were on the same reservation. The check-in agent was able to add my DL number to the ticket and it showed SkyPriority etc on the boarding pass. Once my companion completed check-in separately at the normal line their boarding pass showed correctly as well. Upon scanning my boarding pass at the lounge the agent said something was funny with the ticket so I again showed my DL GM card and was allowed in with my companion without any further issue.
