I'm looking at booking some flights in April between the UK and the US but I'm a bit uncertain about lounge access and points earning as a velocity platinum.
Essentially I want to book UK -> US gateway -> OKC (and return) on VS and/or DL.
My question is if I book on a DL code would I get lounge access on VS metal at LHR?
Similarly if I book on a VS code on DL metal would i get lounge access at ATL?
According to the published rules at https://www.virginaustralia.com/au/en/experience/at-the-airport/international-lounge-access/ lounge access is determined by "operating carrier" not who issues the ticket or airline code but has anyone had experience in practice?
As I read the rules I would not earn points on a codeshare but again has anyone had experience?
