Linking does NOTHING. It simply results in a note in the reservations system. No aiirport agent unless they go looking will ever see any note about the other reservation. Even if it's on one reservation, if it's on two different tickets then airline flying you on ticket one has no responsibility for flying you anywhere on ticket two.
