What about going through Japan (Narita?)! I know that it has some severe slot restrictions, but as mentioned earlier, unless you start dialogue, you never know!

For example, the QF21/22: Departs Sydney at 9:45pm and arrives into Narita c. 6:30am... A transit of say, 90mins and depart out of Narita 8:00am... Now JL401 departs Narita at 12:00noon arriving LHR at 4:35pm so this 'idea would have you arriving c. 12:30pm and negating having a night stopover in Narita (which is good... but not for some).

Return flights could be something along the lines of departing LHR c. 9:00pm which would arrive into NRT c. 5:15pm and with a departure c.9:00pm, it would be arriving into Sydney c. 8:30am.

Mind you, this could also be routed via Kansai which was a route that JAL once offerred and now codeshare with the QF group via Jetstar. It could even be via Nagoya as well, but as I havn't been there myself, I am not sure of the size/infrastructure of the airport!

Just my $0.02 worth!
