Another interesting deal that might suit some folk.

This is a mixed class fare with economy class to Europe (your choice of destination) and full business class on the return all the way to Australia.

This is available on the Lufthansa website, and there is a bit of a trick to finding the fare.

While the fare is sold by Lufthansa, they don't fly here, so you'll be on Qantas or Singapore Airlines to Singapore, picking up Lufthansa, Austrian or Swiss from there. On the return, you'll fly LH or Austrian to Bangkok or Singapore, and pick up Thai or Qantas home from there (respectively).

Good connections in most cases.

The $3332 fare is for MEL-CDG with sample dates 16 May to 28 May.

How to book...

Enter origin and destination, economy class.

This will bring up a range of outbound dates and you can choose the cheapest (around $540).

Then scroll down and you will see the return options. These may only be economy. If this is the case you pick other dates from the calendar (where alternative prices are listed), and these may open with business class as an option for the return. The retun leg is $2700. The business class option is available most days, but there can be a couple in a row where there's nothing. (the only mildly annoying thing is that if you select an alternative inbound date, it searches again for both dates which takes about 15-20 seconds.)

This is full business on the way back, including the Qantas or Thai flights (some websites shunt you into economy for this last leg).

Depending on your FF program you'll pick up a swag of star or star+oneworld points (and Scs for QF).

I used CDG as an example here, but other cities are also available. For example I found this fare for a friend going to BCN in early May.
