MileSaver Business on AA from LAX- Australia (can include a connecting flight on Qantas within Australia) is pricing out at 80k. They are all American Airlines flights. Have never seen a LAX-SYD Qantas flight come up.

For Delta, I have found no pattern. Cheapest I have ever found is 110,000 miles one way, but often cheapest is 175k and have even seen 300+k for 1 way Delta One seats. At the 110,000 level I am often seeing only 1 seat. I am also only seeing Delta flights. I have never seen a Virgin Australia flight to SYD come up.

I was surprised there was availability.
