3 June, 2018

Royal Brunei Airlines CEO Karam Chand, speaking to CAPA on the sidelines of the IATA AGM and World Air Transport Summit, stated (03-Jun-2018) the airline's board will decide in Jul-2018 on new routes to be launched later in 2018 with its new fleet of seven A320neos. The airline plans to take seven A320neos in 2018. Four will replace A320ceos, one will be used to increase frequency on existing routes and two will be used for new routes. Mr Chand said up to five new routes could be launched. The focus is mainly on North Asia but India and a fourth destination in Indonesia is also under consideration. Brisbane was previously looked at but will not be launched, at least not in 2018.
