Looks to me like that's now gone, unless I'm missing something. Shame too - I'm potentially booking a Europe - BKK J fare in the next few days!

Thanks Expat - I did check out that fare, but I'm finding it difficult to get something at a reasonable level for an outbound around mid Jan.

Good outbound, but not so good with a tentative April return and I suspect VCE airport would be a pain 
I've got a couple more days before booking, but right now either swallowing ~$2K on Qatar or maybe saving a bit with RJ looks like the way forward.
Let's see what turns up tomorrow...
