Advice needed on flights to "OZ"

Good evening Ppruners,

I normally hover about in the Rotorheads section, but have been advised this section could possibly provide me with some answers.

One of my sons and his pal, are approaching the end of their school life and have been given the chance to have a gap year in Sydney Australia as gap year students at a college there, they need to fly out in August 2003 and return July 2004, in order to put Mrs Vfrs mind at rest I need to try to arrange this PDQ then it is just down to the wait.

What I would like is some advice from some of you heavy metal types out there on such things as :-
Is there a best Airline for this sort of destination?
Which would be the most interesting (and Safe) route to take?
what sort of offers could we expect to be given for booking ahead?
Is there any airline to avoid?
Most importantly my son and his pal are both pretty tall and heavyish, so I feel it would be important for them both to have legroom. any help at all or suggestions will be appreciated .

Many regards
