Royal Brunei to Start Boeing 787 Operation from December 2013

Royal Brunei on Thursday opened reservation for its Boeing 787 operation. First Boeing 787 route opened for reservation is Bandar Seri Begawan – Dubai – London Heathrow, scheduled to start from 01DEC13 (DXB/LHR departure from 02DEC13).

BI097 BWN2100 – 0140+1DXB0300+1 – 0640+1LHR 787 D
BI098 LHR1705 – 0410+1DXB0535+1 – 1730+1BWN 787 D

Royal Brunei’s 2-class 254-seater Boeing 787 includes 18 Business Class seats (2-2-2) and 236 Economy Class seats (3-3-3).

I guess that Royal Brunei is going to go head to head with BA, EK, and QF on the LHR-DXB route. Hope the great success on the route.

New sensation

A customer’s first 787 will also feature another first—a brand new livery. The first 787 for Royal Brunei Airlines recently came out of the paint hangar in Everett with a bright yellow tail featuring the national crest of Brunei.

The airplane features a classic styled new livery and logo. Royal Brunei Airlines says it is designed to create a family-like, peaceful and tranquil atmosphere with high class customer service.

Royal Brunei Airlines has five 787s on order, with this first one scheduled for delivery this fall. Congratulations to them on the sensational new look.
