From Expertflyer for Nov. 1 (BA is POS UK – for all others POS is US)

[Note: I have had no success pasting in additional results for BA, JL, CX, QA and MH. They all show D0. All but JL show availability in Y and most show C, B and H availability.]

SYD is not the only international airport in Australia. Try also for BNE, MEL, ADL. Frequent domestic flights to SYD. PER-SYD is ~4:15hr and can be expensive .
Are you looking just for LHR-SYD? Or LHR-XXX and XXX -SYD as separate segments and/or on separate airlines?
QF is flying nonstop from BLR to SYD and DEL to MEL. BA LHR to India?
QF10 is LHR-(PER)-MEL - 1 flight number/segment LHR to MEL
Note Qatar QR fly's from several UK airports. Not just LHR. May give more opportunity'.
Not sure what its like now, but in past times a code share could sometimes have A, D, L availability when the prime flight did not.
Note long haul flights to AU are busy with high loads going forward
Are you also trying to get to AKL on the DONE4? To NZ and backtrack to AU with DONE/award/cash is another option.
