A class tranferability UK-OZ

I have a xxx - LHR-SIN-SYD-MEL and back ticket booked in A inventory (not a RTW ticket). Any advice on re-routing - eg LHR-HKG-SYD-MEL? Or am I stuck with the traditional kanga route?

Depends on the fare rules. Is it routing constrained or MPM based?

Avoid trying to sleep on the SIN-SYD sector. The meal service will take 2 hrs to run, the breakfast (if an overnight flight) will start 2 hrs before landing and that leaves a bit over 4 hrs for sleeping. Not good if you really need sleep. I'd much prefer to do LHR-BKK-SYD or LHR-HKG-SYD as the run down to SYD will allow 2 more hours of sleep if that is what you are aiming for.

Now let's not be coy virtualtroy! The xxx is making me very curious.

There Is a Place near europe (that offers Little Itsy Bitsy Year-round Airfares) and has been the subject of several (quite heated) threads in BA & LH forums in particular.

I'm not 100% sure if this is the xxx virtualtroy refers to.

There are quite a few places within Europe that also offer cheaper year-round airfares, but not quite as inexpensive as the ones you're alluding to.

Anyway, think I've now answered my own question when I suddenly remembered I've asked it before

What is the purpose of this thread? to tell us about some super cheap fares EU-OZ? Because if it is not that then I fail to get it.

AFAIK endorsing but retaining routing is a different question to changing routing (with or without endorsing to another airline). Rerouting will always require ticket reissue. Endorsing to another airlines on the same route may or may not require ticket reissue depending on the applicable rules (eg *A allows endorsement between all member airlines except SQ, subject to availability of course).
