flights
Hi everyone,
Has anybody used "Royal Brunei Airlines" from Heathrow to Perth? They seem to be cheaper than other flights but don't know if it's worth paying the extra.

Re: flights
Never flown with them personally, but the OH said if you don't drink, their ok - just. They also have smaller aircraft with a two stop trip, Dubai and Brunei.You can take your own booze you get in LHR dutyfree, but you have to drink the lot before Dubai and anything you get in dutyfree in Dubai, if possible, you have to drink before Brunei - that is if you can get it through security.

Interesting.... Didn't realise that about the Royal Brunei. It's not the end of the world, but it's extra hassle if you want wine with your dinner!

Re: flights
I'm flying back to UK with them from Brissie next week. Only had a couple of negative comments but lots of positive stuff so I'm assuming they are no different from any other airline in terms of quality. If I get back home two weeks later, I'll post my thoughts on them.
