Not sure, but isn't Air Pacific partly owned by Qantas anyway. This would mean that AirNZ have got into a codeshare with Qantas by the backdoor. Bad for competition, as code shares always are.

"Air Pacific: Information from Answers.com- Qantas raised its equity in Air Pacific from 17.45 percent to 46 percent in 1998. It paid FJD 27 million for the additional shares. The government of Fiji owned 51 percent. Qantas was a member of the oneworld global airline alliance, ..."

Get ready for one global airline........

Smooth landings.....

"Air Pacific is owned by the Fiji Government (51%), Qantas (46.3%), Air New Zealand (3.67%) and the governments of Kiribati, Tonga, Nauru and Samoa (1%). It employs 754 people (at March 2007)[1]."

Wikipedia Article

So, FJI is part owned by QFA, and ANZ already.

one gets the feeling that many industries will be single global entities one day, there always seem to be mergers and acquisitions in many firms. Conglomo anyone?
