I was looking through the Find a Flight area and I noticed that we can fly a couple of Qantas flights. I then went to FlightAware.com and looked up other Qantas flights. I was wondering why we can only fly the listed flights in the Pilot Center and can not fly other Qantas flights?

Why should we be allowed any Qantas flights...? Delta doesn't codeshare with them at all...

Good question, then why is it in the "Find a Flight" section?

Not all the flights flown by Qantas are Codeshare. Same happens with the rest of the airlines listed in our schedule.

My point is that the real world Delta does NOT codeshare at all with Qantas. I'm certainly not complaining. I just find it curious.

Uh... our database updates automatically to match the real world Delta Airlines schedule, so I guess there should be some codeshare flights somewhere with Qantas. It's a good question...

I also think we can fly Qantas codeshares with Air France, not Delta, thats why they appear also in the DVA schedule list.

That would explain it because I know that Delta in real life doesn't codeshare with Qantas.
