Perth to UK flights question
 
Looking to book a holiday in the UK later in the year, but as with most things I dont know of any cheap flight places to book through, if we were doing it the other way around I would know loads of avenues to go up, but alas dont know many from this end, I suppose my question is where can I book the cheapest Perth to Manchester flights through, here in Perth. Cheers if you can add anything.

I think flight centre usually has some of the best deals, but its always worth while checking direct with the airline for any specials they may be offering. Lowest fares will probably be with Royal Brunei unless someone else is offering a really good deal, but getting the availability can be a bit harder with them.

www.bruneiair.com is the cheapest - one stopover in Brunei, one stopover in Perth. depending on the travel day the stopovers can be as short as an hour.

I think those quotes for flying times via Singapore and KL are a bit out!!

I've flown it a number of times and it's usually 12 ish hours to Singapore/KL (13 on the way back) and then 4.5-5 hours to Perth, total flying time = approx 17 hours!

I hear wht you say, those are elapsed times point to point ie, from the moment you get on at Perth, to the moment you get off at Manchester.

And they're accurate, Believe me.

I reckon Perth to Gatwick is more like 18 hours elapsed - definitely the quickest of all.
