How long do you want to stay in the UK?

The problem is that if you want to travel back before Xmas you will likely be in the super expensive pre-Xmas travel season.

You'll be very lucky to find anything under $3000 this close to departure.

Probably depends on when school breaks up in the UK and I've got no idea. Royal Brunei are cheap(ish) but as has been said you'll be lucky to get a bargain this close to christmas and you certainly won't get any bargain coming back. Best advice? Start planning a trip back for his 21st

I think this is about as good as you'll get....BA/Qantas....strangely bookable on BA Aus site but not Qantas.

Probably because it is a BA route, but they share it.
