Hi PatrickKH, welcome to FT
You can't access the EK lounge if you are travelling on a flight operated by another carrier. Neither will you earn tier miles but I believe you will earn skywards miles as a partner airline

I flew DXB-CPT in J on a SAA codeshare emirates flight last August and was able to check in at T3 biz section and had access to the lounge.
The day before the flight I was able to access emirates Manage booking, select seats and then print off a emirates ticket (if I remember correctly the online check-in was not available though)
No tier miles were earnt, but I did get miles after sending in my boarding pass.

DubaiBlue, how did you access your booking on the Emirates website? I am also booked via the SAA codeshare but the SAA PNR does not come up on Emirates. Is there a separate PNR?

It was the SAA PNR number but it only worked 24hrs before flight departure, can't remember now if it was the travel agent or if I inquired to emirates who told me.
