Top tip.. Go to expedia and check out the cabin loads for your flight prior to your bid. On the AUH to SYD sector, only 12 seats were occupied in Pearl so the chance of all 12 pax bidding is very slim. LHR to AUH loads were very heavy so I'm surprised I bagged that one!
Personal choice, of course, but for me the LHR-AUH price seems high compared to AUH-SYD. 14 hours for £550 or 6 hours for £450?

Great that you got what you wanted, and £1000 for a day in First is probably a good price, but I'm surprised the SYD sector was so "cheap".
