But perhaps the commonality with EY will work in your favour.
It used to be that Etihad "converted" codeshares into prime flights when checking in and flying on Etihad. I could never determine whether there was any logic as to how and when this happened, but I had several cases where EY posted AB and VA codeshares on EY into EY flightcodes when earning in Etihad Guest

I think you may be out of luck. Virgin Australia has stayed out of the Etihad Airlines Partners virtual alliance, which recently announced closer integration of earning across each airline, but VA are outside of that.

Air France
Anyone else having issues selecting seats on Air France?
I have 4 tickets booked with various combinations of SkyTeam on the outbound and OneWorld on the inbound. I'm able to select seats on all my Oneworld segments (BA and Cathay) and my ticketed/operated Alitalia segments. However I have several Alitalia ticketed/AirFrance operated segments that I can't get seats selected on AirFrance, KLM or AlItalia sites. Flying Blue Platinum here...do I need to resort to calling in? Trying to avoid drawing attention (although given where this debacle went, perhaps it's a moot point trying to stay under the radar).

I do not, I'm afraid. Out of my 3 phone calls to them, I highly doubt that any of my calls were handled in the UK. Nonetheless, service was personable and (eventually) efficient.
