AtlasGlobal booked as KLM codeshare: Sky Priority and Lounge Acces at AMS ?
Hello all,
I'm a FB Gold, flying AMS-IST next week with AtlasGlobal booked with as a KL codeshare.
I assume I will have to check in directly with AtlasGlobal, so no priority check-in there?
What about lounge access; will I have this as I have booked it under a KL flight number?
Thank you,
Robert

Lounge access
Just make sure you are travelling on that same day on a KLM-operated flight, an international SkyTeam-operated flight or a domestic SkyTeam-operated flight that is connected with a SkyTeam-operated international flight.

Yes thats the global Skyteam policy. For FB members, at their own Crown Lounges, KLM has a more lenient policy which includes KLM codeshares, Transavia etc.

While it might not be described, I can confirm I had no issues entering the crown lounge flying on codeshare flights.
@KLflyerRalph does it also include HV flights booked as HV or only for flights booked as KL?

Nowhere public 
It also includes Transavia flights with flight number HV5000-6000. See https://insideflyer.nl/wanneer-heb-j...-crown-lounge/

Different experience here. Travelled AtlasGlobal in J on a KL-codeshare a while ago. They sent me to the wonderful Aspire lounge, and I tried the Crown Lounge, but to no avail, even after showing the app with KL number.
My brother though, who was travelling on the same flight, tried it with another agent, and he got in...
AtlasGlobal had priority check-in and security, and the cabin was better than the KL EuroBiz 737.

I confirm, no issue at AMS or CDG in that circumstance.
But what about in IST flying Atlas Global in Y (FB Gold/Plat) on KL or AF code-share ? Can you access the Skyteam lounge ?

I would suspect that if lounge access is available, it will be to whichever lounge AF/KL has an agreement with for codeshare flights, in BEG for example you access different lounges on an AF codeshare than on a KL codeshare

I believe Skyteam pax still go to this lounge, but to come back to the thread subject, this may complicate things when flying on Atlas Global code-share.

Writing this from the Crown Lounge, not issue at all to get in. The agent scanned the AtlasGlobal boarding pass without question and typed my FF number into the computer.
Online check-in was working also on the Atlas Global website, despitie of KLM's info on https://www.klm.com/travel/nl_nl/plan_and_book/ticket_information/Flying_with_KLM_partners/index.htm#p14
