Don't overlook flying with Etihad, they go Dublin - Abu Dhabi - Sydney. No connection just going that route myself shortly.
The biggest mistake made people going to Australia for a few weeks is that they try to fit in too much.
In my opinion you will just prolong the misery of jetlag if you stay only one night on the way out. I stayed 2 and wished I hadn't wasted my time. On the way back stay for three nights and make sure to have plenty of room in your suitcase! The markets there are greatThanks Shawady - I'd prefer to go to Sydney as directly as I can (missing son!!) but my husband thinks the flight is just to long all in one go. So I'm trying to talk him into staying 1 night on the way & have 3 nights in Hong Kong on the way back to be able to relax & enjoy it.
I'm noting all the suggestions & I'm really grateful for all the input - keep it up! I'm thinking of renting a motorhome while over there & will be checking it out also.
When I have something booked I'll update here.
