    My daughter and her friend are travelling to Australia in late December.they will spend about a month there and then fly to Bali and Thailand for about six weeks before flying back to the uk in late March. Is there a better option than just buying single tickets from uk to Australia and then to bali etc ?

    Maybe try Lon-Aus and then Bangkok-lon on skyscanner multitrip. Not sure if any of the ME3 etc would sell that as an open jaw. Then Aus-Bali-Bangkok on low cost airlines

    If the AUS-DPS flight has a EK/QF/QR flight number then a multi-stop ticket excluding the DPS-Thailand flight may be possible.

    An option is to book return tickets to singapore and rest as individual tickets. Thailand and Bali have excellent connections from SIN.
    There are also some good low cost options to Bali from Australia.

    Besides Sin check KUL and BKK too, all three are visa on arrival without hassle.

    Inside Asean countries LCC or flag carrier flights single legs are cheap and easy in economy like they are in Europe. They’re ar lccs down to Australia too. Price out the flights for their dates with google to figure out the best bus station hub country for the long leg – if you need overnights bkk / kul will likely be cheaper when accommodation is needed.

    We’re doing something similar – cheapest way for us was a straight return to Singapore and then adding on the extra one-way flights, as the open jaw route was expensive. Scoot is based in Singapore and covers the destinations needed, so they may well be a good option for cheap flying.

    +1 for a Singapore stop. The airport is so good it makes for a good stop over if you do not have status (good restaurants, pay £10 to use a pool and shower between flights, etc.)

    Booking it as London Singapore and then Thailand- London shouldn’t cost any extra, might even be cheaper !

    Scoot down to Aus can be very inexpensive if you’re a bit flexible on dates
