Urgent flight to Sydney help required

This is a long shot, but here goes.

My best friend got a call from Australia this morning from her long-term boyfriend's flatmate (her boyfriend's a French citizen working in Oz) to say that last night her boyfriend was wiped out by a car while crossing the road in Sydney city centre.

He's very seriously injured and the hospital have advised my friend that it would be a good idea to travel to Oz and see him. Without being too grim, that's obviously not good. Another call then came in literally within seconds from her Mum to say her Gran's got cancer and is being operated on on Monday. Talk about a morning from hell.

We've tried out darndest between us, but we just cannot lay our hands on the £1200 for a flight to Oz for her until Tuesday at the soonest. Anyone know where we can get a cheaper flight than this in the meantime? All suggestions welcome. We don't expect charity, just some helpful pushes in the right direction.
