Fly Royal Brunei to London return

-

My wife and I have experience­d the great service supplied by Royal Brunei, now departing Melbourne at a convenient time of 5:30pm (17:30pm), making it an easy connection for Gippsland travellers who can have a leisurely trip to the airport. This gives you ample time to comply with all the usual custom and immigratio­n requiremen­ts and have time to enjoy that relaxing cup of coffee.

Royal Brunei is one of the few airlines to offer the use of one plane right through to your destinatio­n.

Another selling point is because you don’t change planes, you don’t change terminals at the connecting points of your journey.

The fabulous Boeing Dreamliner 787 flies to London Heathrow stopping to refuel at Brunei, with a total time including time on the ground of 23 hours and 10 minutes.

Arriving into London at 6:25am with easy connection­s to most parts of Britain by tube rail and bus to most London areas, trains and planes to other parts of Britain.

Your return connection­s are just as good with a 6:00pm (18:00 hours) departure from London which gives you almost all day to travel to Heathrow. This flight has a flying time of 21 hours and 35 minutes, arriving into Melbourne early the next day.

Qantas have an equal short flying time via Perth - remember the difference between flying times and travel times, the latter includes time taken on the ground to refuel.

The price on Royal Brunei from Melbourne to London return is $1065 for low season, slightly more than last year, and for high season is $1285. Also, one of the best value business class fares of $5590 is available on Royal Brunei. By the way, you may have stop overs in each direction. These offers expire 28th Feb 2019, but I wouldn’t wait until that time as last year most of the best prices and seats sold out.
