Can I access South African airlines lounges with Etihad Gold?

Can I access South African airlines lounges with Etihad Gold? Finally had my match come through from VAPlat, but not sure if the new agreement between voyager and EYguest covers lounge access or only earn/burn?

What airport and what flight

No, you can't access any SAA lounges with EY Guest Gold when flying SAA in Economy.

Their partnership only extends beyond codesharing to earning/burning miles.

As SAA isn't an equity partner of Etihad (like VA, AB & Jet Airways), no frequent flyer benefits are provided to elite tier frequent flyers.

thanks Peter. Will be Star Alliance Gold after this trip so will have to wait until next time.
