  • Please can anyone offer better deal suggestions for single flight to Brisbane from Heathrow economy with stop over 5 days for 1 person.


    The Quote itself: £685 single stopover Tokyo (Qantas/BA) going 12 March
    OR
    £520 stopover Hong Kong (Cathay Pacific) going 11 March from London

    Dates I can fly between 3rd and 18th March. Would consider other stop over destinations but must be to Brisbane.
