Innovative Ideas for PER-???-CDG

[esseeeayeenn]

I'm looking for innovative ideas for flying from Perth to Paris leaving around 5 December returning around 2 January.
QF fares in J are up around $12K, other OW fares around $10K.
There is an option on separate tickets via CGK but that is with QR so would mean a transit in Doha.
Given the Middle East situation that might not be a good idea.
Have tried via DPS, KUL & BKK.
Does anyone else have any other ideas?

MRU on MK?

Doesn't look like there's any viable options under $10K.

I can see CX has PE for $5k if that's an option.

Are you open to making a Y staging flight to somewhere in Asia?

MRU on MK?

Ideally with a long stopover

Thai Airways out of KL is $4800, Vietnam airlines $5100, SQ is $5800,

I was looking at a staging flight (J but on OD so almost Y) to CGK but the cheap J fare onwards is with QR so it means transiting Doha.
I can't find any comparably cheap fares from anywhere else in Asia to CDG.

PER-MRU is about $10K return on its own!
Seems there are no longer any direct flights.

Thai Airways out of KL is $4800, Vietnam airlines $5100, SQ is $5800,

Thanks, I was trying to get close to the QR fare of $3K out of CGK.

What are people's thoughts on the safety / certainty / risks of flying through Doha in December / January?

IMHO … about 5% higher than the normal risk of flying through the Middle East.
