Cheap flights from London Heathrow to Sydney are the more frequent option and Heathrow is the only airport you can catch a direct flight from.

London Stansted Airport and London Gatwick are two airports where many low-cost airlines operate out of, so you'll typically find cheaper flights from London to Sydney flying from these airports.
