There’s nothing specific about operated by alliance flights that prevents them being codeshares. It’s essentially a wet lease at this point, verging on a subsidiary (in a similar manner as air Nelson operates for air nz). Whether all “operated by alliance” flights are marketed as codeshares is another question. But if the schedule change has stuffed things up they should be capable of rebooking you on prime QF?

But still, looking at other routings using the same first two flights (so CNS-BNE-AKL essentially), now only one variant op by QF are shown. All the other flights that are now op by Alliance do not show up. Similar on routes where there is a mix of op by QF / op by Alliance. So to me that gives the impression that Alliance flights somehow do in fact not fit in to the QF/NZ codeshare agreement.
