Royal Brunei Airlines Announces Route Suspensions as Part of Stabilisation Plan
Royal Brunei Airlines (“RBA”) today announced that the company is moving forward with a comprehensive and sustainable plan to improve its operations, financial performance and customer service experience.
As part of the plan, services to Auckland, Brisbane, Perth and Ho Chi Minh City will be suspended effective after the last scheduled flights of October 2011. Flights to Kuching will also be suspended after the last scheduled flight of July 2011.
“It was not an easy decision to reduce RBA’s route network. However, it is the first step towards creating a stronger foundation that will allow the airline to enhance our value to customers, employees, and society,” stated airline Deputy Chairman Dermot Mannion.
Passengers who have purchased tickets for travel on suspended flights are asked to contact the travel agent where they purchased their tickets or their nearest Royal Brunei Airlines ticketing office.
