Announced yesterday, with tickets on sale from today:

Qantas will add the QF code on Airlink’s domestic network, enabling seamless connectivity between Qantas flights to Johannesburg and nine South African destinations, including Cape Town, Durban and Hoedspruit. The carrier hopes to add additional Airlink destinations in nearby southern African countries over the coming months, pending regulatory approval.

By codesharing with Airlink, Qantas Frequent Flyers can earn Qantas Points and Status Credits, as well as pay for flights using Points Plus Pay.

Doesn't look like you'll be able to book Classic Rewards on Airlink though (for now, at least).

With QR just recently purchasing a 25% stake in Airlink it’s always good to see more money funnelled to the good guys
