Wanted; Flight Man to Perth for new Gran!

Hiya,
My lovely next door neighbour's son lives in Perth and she's just heard that he and his wife have had a baby boy today.
Of course she wants to see her first grandchild, so I've told her I'll post here for your good advice on flight prices. She wants to go in 4 - 6 weeks time from now.
She, neighbour, went over to Perth for 3 months this year but think she paid premium price for flights - not an MSE'r!!
Any helpful advice appreciated
Ta

    Prices seem higher this year, possibly partly to do with fuel prices.

    Went in Jan-Feb via Kuala Lumpur with Malaysia paid about £670, looked again recently for August and couldn`t find anything below £750 ish, which considering it`s the middle of winter seems high, could go in Nov-Dec (summer) for the same money.
