cant remember how your flight compair to ours price wise, think we get slightly better deals, but you should be able to do a mulit stop return for less than £1000 incl tax's, when i flew with malasian 4 years ago on a return to Oz they offered a free return flight anywhere in malasia / borneo during the stop over, or fly via singapore then get a jetstar asia return flight from singapore to japan, should work out fairly cheap, JAL airlines used to go via japan and singapore, but not sure if they are still running.. (good sneaker shopping in singapore).. or hook up with nein in indonesia (think it was there he was from wernt it?)
virgin atlantic is coming in at just under aus$2000.. been with them before to the states, good company to fly with, might be able to go via japan with them, and can probably use your airmiles from that flight on virgin blue flights... malaysian are comming in a just over $2000 .incl tax's.....based on flight leaving at the end of august (you wanna be in london for august bankholiday weekend). looking at flightcentre.com.au, there website isnt the best, but i found their staff in the actual shops were really good

Bank Holidays are when British people all take the day off work at the same time, usually a Monday and the whole country gets wankered for the entire long weekend.

I flew with Qantas and couldn't fault them, apart from the cunt who was on the check-in desk in Adelaide. Cost me around £800 with a stop in Singapore on the way, booked it through the flight centre too. Like Pukka says the website is gash but the staff at the one in Edinburgh anyway are really helpful. Sure there is one in Adelaide.
I once made the mistake of going out on a Sunday, thinking it was a bank holiday the next day. It wasn't. I turned up at work after 3 phone calls asking where the fuck I was, and spent the day praying to the porcelain Gods. I'm not young anymore...
It was fuckin' obvious that that cunt was gonnae fuck some cunt.

Wasn't so much forgetting, I just assumed that because all my mates were off that I was off too. Turned out the company worked bank holidays, and you could use the days towards your own holidays. It was my first job after graduating, which is the same excuse I used at the time.

he could do both, theres no point flying for 24 hours each way for less than 4~5 weeks.. well.. I wouldnt anyway.. but then I like my long holidays... touch down in london on the friday before bankholiday, then see a few other places, berlin, the dam, barca before heading back to blighty for the end of september & ssdb 5th birthday celebrations, fly home the following day.
assumin that something does happen...
