£800 is not a lot considering what you need to pay... Don't you get two flights.... that means 4 flights and 4 amounts of petrol and also a lot of different people off loading and loading etc...
I'd say around £600-£800

Please, STFU 
Look at around £800 for flights to here, Malaysia Airlines seem to do good deals out here and the aircraft seats are generously spaced on the Heathrow-KL-Sydney route. Stay away from China Airlines, although they are around £500 with 2 stop overs, 1 in Bahrain AFAIK and the other in Beijing

I payed 900 with Thai airways, if you stop in Bangkok airport, dont be a tosser like i was!
I was sat downstairs for 6hours waiting for my next flight to melbourne...thinking what a rubbish airport, just a few toilets and a little cafe and foreign TV.......
Then my flight is called, so i go up these stairs to find a huge shopping mall, bars, the lot! i was gutted!
Its a nasty flight in cattle seats, luckily on my flight home i was sat infront of the big TV so i had loads of leg room, just screaming kids behind me!

I paid £720 return - Heathrow - Singapore - Brisbane - that was with Singapore Airlines which I must say were fantastic - had 3 seats to myself all the way there and back so made the most of it and lay down with the TV facing me.
Recently booked a one way flight to New Zealand via Hong Kong which came to £404 all in with Cathay Pacific which Ive heard great things about - in a recent Internet Poll thay got rated the best economy class.

I paid £620 last July with Japan Airlines through Austravel. Included a 1 night stay in Tokyo (B&B in a nice hotel) on the return flight.
