This is amazing prices for business class flights to Australia, especially with BA/Cathay Pacific.
The flights are from Oslo to Sydney. I know people are going to moan, but for £50 return including luggage you can get a return flight to Oslo, even less if you have Avios. This will be a budget airline but hey, if you are going to be flying business class I'm sure you can stick it in Ryanair for a couple of hours! Compare this to the cheapest business class flight from UK in a similar period and you're looking at £2k with Vietnam Airlines (which does not compare to BA or Cathay Pacific)!!
Flights routing is Oslo>London>HK>Sydney (you cannot avoid going back to London)
On the return journey it is Sydney>Hong Kong>London>Oslo
For a little more you can have stopovers in Hong Kong.
On the return journey it may be possible to exit at London, either by adding in a long stopover or taking a chance that with say a 4 hour stop over if you ask for your hold luggage to be returned to you they will let you have it and you can leave. Of course you won't have this problem if you don't take hold luggage.....
Various dates in Feb and March 2016. Remember to sign up for Ebookers reward scheme as you could get £16 odd credit with them per flight.
Just checked Avios for this period and plenty of availability London to Oslo return £35 and 35000 Avios.

worth noting, if you don't take the final leg of the trip ie LON-OSL you may not get any tier points or avios credited to your exec club account :man: good price though

Yeah that's a possible downside but even when skipping the last leg of flights I always get point credited for the flights I have taken. If it was me and just add on an Avios flight with BA as the points you are getting just for taking the London to Oslo leg make it worthwhile.

Hi
Can anybody help me re stopovers. I have entered multi cities one Booker website and price jumps up. Is there a better way of requesting a stopover so that the price does not jump £5/600?
