I am looking to travel to Perth (Australia) from London or Manchester next March 2019, travelling business class and preferably using airmiles. I currently have 400000 Virgin Miles and 160000 with American Express.
I dont mind stopping once or twice on the way to break up the journey. I have seen and read various options including Garuda and Singapore Airlines but wondering if anyone could give me a definitive guide on which would be the best value and chance of availability
Business class awards UK/EU to Australia is hard with any frequent flyer program.
Have you looked at which ffp's your UK Amex MR can transfer to?
And then look at what ff partners those airline ffps have.

Getting to SIN or other Asian airport with ff miles and then a cash ticket to PER is an option.
