my thoughts on ROYAL BRUNI Airlines,
as there had been several posts recently asking about RB including me i thought id give my thoughts as just got bac from 5wks in uk [our first trip bac in the 7yrs of being in QLD but thats another story]
Anyway had read more bad than good reports so was a bit worried , we had a decent enough flight out although wasnt keen on the 2 stops but i knew it was happing , a few people didnt , food ok nt the best iv had but u wouldnt starve , not worried at all with the no alco , although we were able to by a couple small bottles at brissy to drink on the 2 planes , seating ok im only 5ft nothing so heaps of leg room , even my hubby who is taller found it ok , i didnt like being stuck in the middle as had nice young lad beside me who was lucky enough to sleep so i felt bad in climbing over his as im such a fidgeter & like to walk about , it was the same on changing planes in dubi,
flight home to oz MUCH better as got to airport in good time & managed to get the back 2 seat ,
the movies etc were pretty good , we had a 3,1/2 hr stop in bruni which i thought was only gonna b 2hrs but hadnt checked ticket , bruni airport is tiny & not much to do at all , to pass some time i went & had a shower [free] all pretty basic but ok , they do offer a free trip which takes about 2hrs if u hav a longer stop . im not sure if i would use them again purley because of the 2 stops but i guess if the price was that good i would , we payed $1700 each , our friends going to uk nxt june & r going with singapore at only $1900 & 1 quick stop not bad i thought. anyway hope this has been helpful to some ,
