The fare quoted SIN-BOM rtn was over AUD900 including taxes, so it looks like QF is actively discouraging 'local' traffic by pricing high and keeping through seats available.

I did call soon after the flights via SIN loaded into the system, so maybe they have come down now, but there would certainly be cheaper alternatives.
