I saw this report mentioned elsewhere on the Net:-
More London-SA flights

British Airways will increase its South African services by another seven flights from April 2009 following successful bilateral talks between the South African and British governments.

This brings the number of flights the airline is able to operate between South Africa and the UK to 35 a week.

The additional services will operate on the busy Johannesburg-to-London route, increasing the existing double-daily schedule to triple-daily.
...
That'll be the end of Comair doing London, then? IIRC, Comair were awarded four frequencies. Did CE have rights to only three frequencies? If so, presumably they're up for grabs now so that Comair could ask to go to a daily service. But somehow I can't see it if BA mainline is (finally!) going to be able to operate more than double daily.
