Lounge Access - Eurowings
I know Eurowings is not part of StarAlliance and therefor no lounge access if you are not with United, Lufthansa or Ana, but what if the ticket is a Swiss Airlines ticket and Eurowings is just the operator?
I have two flights next week MAD-ZRH and ZRH-HAM with the second one operated by Eurowings. Both flights are booked with Swiss Airlines. Would that give me lounge access in ZRH through my Elite card?

The answer is almost certainly "no". Codeshares need to be operated by another *A partner for *A benefits to apply. A Swiss elite - Miles & More actually - is much more likely to receive benefits although I don't know the precise terms of that.

The OP is trying to use TK status...
