[wildwesty]

Im off out the office in a bit, back tomorrow.

Am planning on going across to Austrailia next year (april), Nr perth it think. Friends wedding doo, for 3 weeks so flight only for 2 adults and a baby.

Any of you WSCC members offering good rates or a trade on some office air conditioning?

Just got back meself after a short 5 week break          

One of the cheapest deals I found this year was via Travelbag - if you can book up well in advance there's some decent offers.

From previous trips

Singapore airlines are good

Emirates are o.k.

Royal Brunei are o.k

Malayasian Airways are o.k

Qantas can be iffy

BA are sh1te (IMHO)

Singapore, Hong Kong and Dubai are all worth a stop-over for a few days - no extra flight cost and it breaks the journey, particularly on way home.

Royal Grand Plaza in Sing and Shangri La in Dubai are well located and decent hotels

...sorry for the hijack but wot about places to get tickets to sunny Oz/NZ maybe going round the world and stopping off in (an)other(s) place(s).

Specific enough for ya?  

Or should I go into a shop *shudders* and speak *tremble* to a real *Brrrrrr* person?

Can anybody point me in the right direction?

Ta!

Do round world single or multiple stop-over flights     I've used em a few times and always spoke to a real person       even gone into one of their shops on one occasion *gasp*

Funnily enuff, the travelbag system's not too bad once you get used to its operation...

Larndon - Singapore (stopover) - Sydney (no stopover) - Auckland (stopover) - Toronto (stopover) - Larndon = about 1050 of yer English ££s

Can't quite get it to do what I want yet but it's a heck of a lot cheaper than I thought given the Aus only prices.

[Mark Stanton]

Aussie internal flights can be much cheaper if booked when in Aus - Virgin Blue have some good internal one way deals      

Singapore is well worth a look at (IMHO)

Used STA travel in 2003 when I went to Aus/Nz. Went into their office in Leeds and spent a couple of hours sorting flights/itinery out, very helpful, nothing too much trouble....don't have to be a student either  

[Stuart]

Travelocity and I think Opodo both allow you to search multiple flights.
