You're probably right of course but, still, we can always hope.
And speaking of Qantas ... isn't there an SA codeshare (i.e., 7700-7701, JNB<->SYD) on QF metal that is allowed on *A RTWs? By that token, depending on (a) where in S. Am. Qantas eventually goes and (b) who the eventual S. Am. *A partner is ... maybe we'll get lucky.
