Cheap Flight to Kuala Lumpur - Malaysia

Do you know any site where I can book a cheap return ticket to Kuala Lumpur in September-October ? I can't find anything cheaper than £500+ :( But when I look for Australia with stopover in KL, is only about £50-100 more !?

thank you

    I can never find a cheap flight to Malaysia there is not enough competition from the UK so what I do is always fly to Bangkok[there are always cheap deals to there] and then I get a flight from Bangkok to KL[about an hour].
    I have priced it many times and am always cheaper doing this

    if you want to go cheap, you'll always have to stop somewhere on the way. My lady has only flown once & she flew with malaysian airlines - this is before she knew how to shop around. Here's some sites we recommend - there could be better ones out there though.

    airlines:

    also depends of course on the time of year you go! summer is more expensive obviously.

    I do this route every year and have always found the cheapest route is through Bangkok.
    Dusan you can book BKK to KL through the web but it is more expensive.It is a lot cheaper booking it in Bangkok .
    We never overnight anywhere on route.
