Hi Di, are you a Commonwealth Bank mastercard holder? If so, you would have access to their True Awards site on Netbank. They have TravelPlus which is like webjet, zuji, etc, and they were surprisingly competitive.
Anyway I searched Denpasar to Sydney one way and the total cost of flight, including taxes is $442AUD which includes their $10 booking fee. I thought this very cheap for peak season (early January 2009). Its only a few clicks to search, select flights, enter credit card details, confirm and voila! they email you with a flight.
If too techno you can ring the TravelPlus customer service centre and they will make your booking for a fee of $30.
For some reason the outbound flight didnt work (too close to closing date of offer I think) but got same flight on lastminute.com instead for a few bucks cheaper than TravelPlus.
Good luck Di - is this Bali again? When are you going?
