Going the other way I see A$900/1,957/6,193
I think the 30-50% premium roughly comes from comparing V class against E class (or at least this is the case for me) - but if you are buying cheapest available then yes it will be 100%+

Example: For HKG - SYD its normally somewhere between 9.5-10k for me when using my seat guarantee for V class

5.7k is a really good fare tho (almost at fanfare levels) - can you get that for the optimised flights? (161/101 and 138)
