Thanks to everyone who replied, you are simply the best!
I ended up getting Garuda BC fares for about $800 per person one way from Denpasar to Sydney on the Garuda website (booked me in USD and no booking fee). When I tried to book return including the same flight, the price went up to $1700. Go figure!
So I booked Jetstar BC from Sydney to Denpasar which was $800 per person (included a booking fee of $25 and $9 for credit card). For $200 extra you can also get lounge access, cancellation if required and Qantas FF points. Virgin and Garuda were both around $1700 so I suppose it's better than that.
I really don't think I'd pay full tick for a return BC so I wonder if they're pricing themselves out of the market?
Now I have to post and ask all the questions that Garuda's site doesn't answer!
