RBA’s Cheap Bluesky Fares With $68 To KL A Big Hit

Bandar Seri Begawan – The national carrier, Royal Brunei Airlines (RBA) has joined other regional airlines in offering cheap airfares to passengers and it is a hit from the start.

Named as Bluesky Fares, the national airline has taken a bold and aggressive step in slashing airfares up to 50 percent, and in some cases even more.

This initiative has enabled Royal Brunei Airlines to pit itself against the tough competition from other airlines-which have already established in the low-cost air service.

Seven destinations are up on offer.

They are Kota Kinabalu, Kuching, Jakarta, Surabaya, Denpasar, Kuala Lumpur and

Darwin.

The public reaction to the Bluesky Fares has been simply overwhelming with destinations such as Kuala Lumpur selling for as low as $68 one way.

For those wishing to travel under this Bluesky fares program, need to log on to Royal Brunei's website at www.bruneiair.com to place their bookings.

The validity of the ticket is from February 1 to March 31, 2004 and goes with certain restrictions such as fares are non-refundable once purchased, no changes are permitted once booked, maximum stay of 30 days, no chid discounts applied.

Fares are not eligible for Royal Skies mileage accrual.

A certain number of seats have been allocated at the low price of $68.

However, should these sell out, seats would then be sold at $138 one way for Kuala Lumpur, Kuching, Jakarta, Surabaya and Denpasar.

Passengers travelling on these flights can expect a full range of services such as complimentary meal and beverage service as well as in-flight entertainment.

This is one of the first signs of the emergence of e-Commerce in Brunei.

With the introduction of e-Government, it can be widely expected that more and more businesses will begin to offer special discounts through, the Internet allowing consumers to save more and increasing business activities in Brunei. -- Courtesy of Radio Television Brunei
