JuliusWong 0 Report post Posted June 14, 2010 Finally, one of the world's most tortured and 'tormented' re-fleeting came true. Btw, they are receiving all 6 B777s over the next few months, BI sure is up to something big..Perhaps polishing their marketing skills would be a good start. My friend took an interior photo..all ex-SQ seats, both J and Y...only change, the KrisWorld is now Skyshow. (ps: just booked KUL-BWN with them, hopefully they will swap a 767 on that day, wishful thinking, but hey...I can dream right? ) Robert Yang is not an ex CEO of Singapore Airlines. nope, he is the ex-country manager for SQ for North America, i think.

In the end I got A319...to make the thing worse, both sectors were by V8-RBR..almost got the same seats!! T.T...So long B767! Anyways, saw one B767 parked outside hangar. Most probably will be retired soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JuliusWong 0 Report post Posted July 19, 2010 I got the guy at the right most at the top picture for my KUL-BWN sector last month. Apparently he is very senior in RBA. Think he is a Chief Steward or Inflight Service Manager. That aside....from what I see the flight is 'pretty much' empty...how long will RBA sustain this?

H C Chai 4 Report post Posted August 8, 2010 (edited) As some of you may have already known, Royal Brunei has finally updated its website to reflect their "new" Business and Economy Class products on the leased B777-200ER. However, it looks like they have provided some conflicting information on economy class seat pitch : 32" on product information page, 33" on the fleet information page and 34" on the seat map.

KC Sim 2 Report post Posted October 1, 2010 Royal Brunei B777-200ER V8-BLF just landed at Changi ... operating BI421 from BWN. Hope this happens more regularly. Meanwhile, 9V-SRE (formerly in Star Alliance livery) is now in the air ... conducting air test in the colours of Transaero Airlines. Scheduled to return to SIN at 1300hrs (but its departure was delayed by 50mins ... so perhaps an arrival closer to 1400hrs. KC Sim Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JuliusWong 0 Report post Posted October 1, 2010 My sister will be flying back fro SIN to BWN soon as well. Equipment listed is 772. Seems like RBA is 'abusing' their B777 like what SQ did last time. On a side note, BI has retired all of its B763. Pity, never got a chance to fly on it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

H C Chai 4 Report post Posted November 9, 2010 Has anyone here flown BI 777? Based on a A.net TR, it looks like BI has made very little changes to the interior and both J/Y are looking a little tired. Anyway, here are a few more really nice promotional photos I found from the BI's Facebook site.
