OT, but I can’t bring myself to pay for F - yet. Maybe if there was an incredible deal to somewhere I’d consider it. Precovid, QF had SYD-LHR for $9,999 return! It’s that or more each way at the mo!

Booking March 2024
Scored JAL F Syd-HND-LHR-Milan for $10,667 out June return September 10
Was likely a promo given the resumption of the 777-300 to the Sydney route
Compared to QF lowest in 2024 of $13,501 F sale and usually some ridiculously high figure often with a 2 in front of it!
