Thing is not so complicated, you can get Laos VISA on arrival or through Laos’s embassy in advance. The cost falls into the range of $30-$50USD. Once again, same as New Zealand, the VISA is not available at all entry point. Only VISA holders are allowed to enter Napao-Chalo, Taichang-Sophoun, Pakxan-Bungkan, Xiengkok. Normally, a VISA is limited up to 30 days and by paying additional fee $2USD/day, you can prolong your VISA for 60 days.

You can decide to arrive at Luang Prabang (LPQ), Pakse (PKZ) and Vientiane (VTE) (Laos’ international Airport) from Sydney, Melbourne, Adelaide, Brisbane, etc. Airline all offer flights from these places to transits in Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore or China. Approximated time flying from Sydney or Melbourne to Laos is 12 hours while from Adelaide or Brisbane to 15 hours.

Try to contact a travel agent and do an inclusive Asia tour or just Indochina, which is close to Laos. A certain amount of cost would be saved and at the same time more enjoyable your trip is.
