By Rosli Abidin Yahya

Bandar Seri Begawan - The national carrier Royal Brunei Airlines announced on Saturday a Dubai Shopping Festival package from Brunei.

Passengers embarking from here will only need to pay $757 per person (twin sharing) for a totally robust buying experience in Dubai, dubbed the shopper's paradise, with over 2,300 retail outlets.

The package started on January 15 and will end February 15. It is available through travel agents or directly from Royal Brunei.

The DSF package was one of the airline's ways of supporing the DSF 2004, a nation famous for shopping, tourism and entertainment extravaganza.

Apart from a shopping adventure, visitors to Dubai will also be able to witness side events such as international fashion shows, street-side performances and other cultural events that reflect the Emirate's cosmopolitan character.

Apart from flights originating from Brunei Darussalam, Royal Brunei is also offering passengers substantial fare savings from key destinations like Kolkata, Singapore, Bangkok, Kuala Lumpur, London, Brisbane, Perth, Darwin and Auckland.

The new set of reduced fares from popular international destinations of the national carrier to Dubai also comes with a special offer of one free seat with every ticket bought in First and Business classes, under the `Buy One, Get One Free' promotion.

Meanwhile visa requirements for UAE nationals visiting Brunei have been waived.

Nationals of the UAE are now allowed to enter Brunei Darussalam and stay for 30 days without obtaining prior visa. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
