Royal Brunei Airlines

Royal Brunei Airlines is the flag carrier of Brunei Darussalam, based in Bandar Seri Begawan. The company was established on 18 November 1974 as an independent corporation wholly owned by the government of Brunei. Its first flight took off for Singapore on 14 May 1975. It is a full service carrier, and complimentary meals, baggage and entertainment come with its full service fares.

Destination pages cover Asia Pacific, Australasia, Europe and the Middle East. Flights from Brunei go to Melbourne, London, Tokyo Narita and Beijing, among other cities. In 2019 the airline launched inaugural flights to Sibu, Tawau, Bintulu and Sandakan, and it returned to Kuching in 2018.

A notice says flights to and from Dubai are suspended until 28 March 2027. Direct London services continue three times a week until the same date. The airline advises passengers who booked through agents to contact those agents for help.

Guests can use SkyConnect inflight connectivity and the Sky Lounge at Brunei International Airport. The Royal Skies loyalty programme earns and spends miles. RB SkyShop and holiday packages are also available, along with a Stopover in Brunei. The airline lists interline and codeshare partners.

The company holds a five star APEX rating and a four star SKYTRAX rating, both in 2019. Its cabin crew have won World Travel Awards from 2020 to 2022. In 2019 the airline opened a new corporate head office at the expanded RB Campus.
