For almost all airlines you are better looking at sites like Expedia rather than at individual airline sites.

Hi charlie - who was that with? My husband looked at BA with their extra bags for £20 deal and it came in at about £600 odd each.

This sounds awfully excessive. Are you sure they weren't first class fares? Whilst I am sure there are plenty more competetive fares out there, I've just put in a few random dates with BA over next few weeks, and in particular over Easter, which would be the most expensive time to travel, and for 2 people from LHR to Syd return, averages around 2,100 pounds.

ba wanted £9300 for 2 people and i thought that was 1st class by mistake so did it again and same.
travel agents want £890 inc but found on a website mentioned earlier for £470 . very good as thats nov 2010.

Try Singapore Airlines, I'm not sure if you are wanting them one way or return but we recently booked our flights from the UK to Adelaide one way and for both of us it is costing £1,058.40 :)
