I'm fairly sure that it would be too long without a stop..

Perth would probably work, but not MEL/SYD..

Has been said, over past rumors, that it's physically possible to operate it.
Now it's likely to be an issue about profitability/aircraft turnaround.
After all TK might just extend the BKK stop onto SYD/MEL.
All in all without a daily and one added stop compared to ME3 this is going to be hard from the beginning, like traditionally has been for Euro carriers.

The fares are loaded into the system. But so far they're quite expensive.
