    Did you try the Multiple Destinations/Stopovers option on the website?

    • +1. The airline will generally have a Multiple Destination options. Just put in the date you'd like to arrive in Dubai and the date you'd like to depart.

      Can I ask which airline you're flying, as I've haven't seen any airline fly that route? Emirates does fly from Brisbane to London with a stop in Dubai and Singapore, but I haven't seen any airline with a stop in Kuala Lumpur.

      • KL is just a plan.
        possibly Bangkok.
        or even singapore.

        fly GC/Bris to KL or Bangkok (airasia/scoot/cheapest) then to Dhubai or Abu Dhabi to paris/london/amsterdam/whatever (etihad/emirates/cheapest)

        I'm pretty sure I saw etihad from KL to abu dhabi.

        going for the least expensive as I'm buying 10 tickets.

        • Etihad are fine, but be aware that if you want to head to Dubai, the drive from Abu Dhabi is about 1.5 hours. They do arrange free transfers between the cities though - chauffeur for First and Biz, and a luxury coach for Economy passengers.

  • Vietnam Airlines often has good fares Sydney - Bangkok with overnight in Saigon (Expensive and a lot of hassle for one night, including Visa + costs). I would like to extend the time in Saigon, but when I go to multiple destination options, the good pricing disappears :0(
