I don't know if there is such a thing, but i'm researching business class flights from London or Manchester to Brisbane for my MIL. Bless her, she refuses to visit unless she can lay down and sleep on the plane
Try changing it from Australia to the UK and see if there's any difference in pricing between pounds and dollars, sometimes there is and it can be cheaper to book in a GBP than AUD.
Thanks Bonez. Skyscanner is always my first point of call. I'm finding other than that there are alot of websites advertising cheap business class flights but I need to fill in an enquiry form to get an agent to contact me which is very annoying!!
I recommend using Best Flights and Jetabroad to search for all plane tickets. I have been using them for several years and they have always been consistently cheaper than any of the other sites on offer. Results up front as well, without the need for any enquiries. I have booked through both of them without any trouble.
I recommend skyclub.com they are business/first class specialists. They don't give prices directly on the website, but fill in the form and they get back to you very quickly.
I can't recommend them enough. Excellent prices and staff. And ATOL protected as a bonus.
The thing with business class fares is that they don't spike up around Christmas quite so much. So we booked business class last year (using skyclub from London) for £3000 each. The equivalent in economy was over £1500 for those dates, so it wasn't too bad. We ended up flying Cathay via Hong Kong. Excellent experience.
If I had booked a month or so earlier (in April) they had Emirates business class for even less!
Another time skyclub found me a last minute (as in booked in the morning, flew in the evening) flight to HK for £1800 business class from London. It was cheaper than the economy fare on such short notice!
The seem to buy frequent flyer points, and resell the seats. I've googled extensively, and it seems legit - seems to be a more common thing in the US. They tend to have the less premium airlines, and you have less of a choice, but much cheaper.
Thanks for your suggestions! I just found a flight from London to Brisbane for £2200(ish) and I don't think I will find much cheaper!!
Thanks again guys
