Hi
I am looking for flights to australia for next eyar itinerary as follows:
Newcastle to Tokyo (via Heathrow) 12/02/11
Tokyo to Sydney 16/02/11
Melbourne to Cairns 28/02/11
Cairns to Brisbane 03/03/11
Brisbane to Hong Kong 06/03/11
Hong Kong to Newcastle (via Heathrow) 11/03/11
The best quote I have had so far is £2749, the flights to and from the uk are BA flights and all others quantas.
I am also looking for a campervan picking up Sydney on 19/02/11 and drop off in Melbourne 25/02/11. It is a 2 berth with shower and toilet (looks like a transit van) for £450.
If anyone can beat these quotes I'd love to hear from you!
Thanks
