Same question: FRA-SAW vv sold by TK (TK 7734/35) 'for XQ for Anadolujet by TK' leaves FRA in T1C. Lounge access for LH*G in FRA or SAW?

The website says:

So it seems TK 77xx flights are considered regular TK flights by *A partners...🤔
From among our passengers flying with AnadoluJet, Elite and Elite Plus cardholders can use all our above-stated lounges, Star Alliance lounges at international airports, and lounges of Star Alliance member airlines free of charge with one guest or their family members. Star Alliance Gold and PLM (Paid Lounge Membership)* cardholders can also use the same lounges with one guest free of charge. Extra allowance is limited to one guest only. A guest does not have to travel with the related passenger however must travel on the same day with a member of Star Alliance airline, submit a boarding pass and enter the lounge together with the cardholder passenger.

ISTFlyer, are you sure about the SAW lounge?
The XQ website says the international lounge is closed, but at the same time the website looks like it hasn't been updated for years. Is there any recent experience?
I'm an E+ and have TK-ticketed XQ flight to DXB.

The TK International Lounge at SAW is closed for refurbishment and renovation with no projected opening date announced to the public. The lounge opened at least several weeks during the post-pandemic era before going into renovation. I am not sure if AnadoluJet is providing a replacement for lounge access but if the lounge was open as an E+ flying AnadoluJet, you should be able to use the lounge there.

First XQ is SunExpress, not AnadoluJet which are two different companies.

Anyway, another question about SAW: Are there any news when the metro line will open? Last news I read is that it will be opened in September (so, now sometimes literally). But postponing the opening seems to be the normal case here (at least every time they indicate a new opening date in that case, not like with the lounge )?

I wonder how long it will take until they'll open the lounge at SAW again (if ever!). I've been travelling quite a few times via SAW and I have the impression that they've closed this lounge already last year, and I don't have the impression that really some work is going on there...

For the metro part, the latest that the Minister of Transportation has announced is September with no solid opening date being announced.

You would need to have a valid boarding pass departing IST to use the lounges there.
