The average economy punter has no idea about alliances & codeshares and cares less. I work with guys who fly to many countries in business class and some don't care or have freq flyer accounts. For example some don't know (or care) that you can get QF points on a CX or EK flight.
Here on AFF & FT we are the 1% who do care & check out before flying
For many people (and business's) only 3 things matter
1. price
2. price
3. price

I have a QF Codehare flight with South African in October as part of a OW Award booking.
Does anyone know what will happen? Guessing I should call them to resolve. I heard they are going to push flying to Africa via Emirates put was hoping this booking would he honoured.
Why don't they just join star alliance already !
seriously, why don't they?

I would fly VA via Perth to JNB. Although do not fancy the wait in Perth, even in the lounge 5 to 7 hours is too long to add to a trip@. I flew with VA in PE to JNB and J return via Melbourne and had a great, smooth flight, wonderful service and beat QF hands down. Last flight to JNB with QF a disaster with flight delays, incorrect information, mismanagement of the delay overall and had to go via Perth instead of direct from Sydney or there would have been a longer delay....I still lost two days of annual leave. Not a happy chappy. Considering a flight to JNB next year, not sure of the date yet, nor had a chance to look at prices but will certainly consider the VA option, however do want something eg SC, good point earning.
