Best way of flying economy from Sydney-London

I like Korean Air for economy.Comfortable, great food, Seoul is a good stopover city (though the flight necessitates a stopover). Usually reasonably priced.

I would do cx. Call them to help you choose 40H for free, best extra room seat on 77G.

Via PER is great, day flight in and then evening flight to London

I would fly SYD to PER, then do the non stop.

Yes I noticed it was initially pretty busy but if you are travelling alone there will be no problems whatsoever gaining entry, assuming you meet entry requirements. I believe they have now committed to or have even built a First lounge at SIN. QF Lounge gets busy from about 5-7pm, but after that it is pretty quiet! (Funny story actually when I arrived at the lounge I was scrambling for a seat in a quetish area and ended up plonked next to a group of four with their "FIRST" boarding passes sittting in an envelope. I was offered all these extra pieces of fancy fingerfood. I initially thought it was a bit strange, but just as I was about to leave to catch my flight to LHR I was told politely to move off to another area as that area had been cordoned off for Chairmans Lounge :D lol

QF PER connection is good because Y seats are 32"pitch like their international competitors.

I vote for QR SYD > DOH > LHR.

PR from MEL/SYD/BNE (widebodies ex MEL daily and SYD at weekends, or daily in Christmas hols.) to MNL then stay overnight and depart next day to LHR on the A359 a good option. One of the cheapest but by no means the worst. Good service on board, safe and not bad punctuality. MNL airport is too basic but good hotels only 20 - 30 minutes from airport.

I know you are linked to QF, but I find SQ hands down the best in economy - consistently excellent. You won't get lounge access in SIN, but you almost don't need it at SIN Airport (and worst case, you can pay a few $$ and get access to their pool and shower)

I got back this week and Did Virgin up the entire way ,my first leg was in business (MEL-HKG-LHR) fantastic even economy on the London leg was great and you can book it all the way through on VA website. Coming back I flew cathay 77W and superb even managed to wangle a empty row.

there is no good way to fly economy sydney to london. do it business class or dont go at all

My advice is to fly to Dubai with Emirates, then stay in the airside hotel for 8 or so hours. This isn’t particularly expensive. You don’t have to clear immigration but may need to go through security. You forward check your bag, don’t need to claim your baggage so carry pyjamas and fresh underwear in your carry on. The hotel there offers a meet and greet at the aerobridge where are nice Philipino lady will get you through security into your room within 5 minutes versus 35. It’ll add about 10% on top of ticket but your have a shower, poo, sleep. Water and it may save your life in terms of health. You will arrive very fresh at your destination. They even have a gym and pool. Everyone calls themselves and airport Hotel so go to the airport website to find the airside hotel.
