Royal Brunei Airlines Selects The A320neo

Firm Orders For Seven Aircraft Plus Three Options

Royal Brunei Airlines (RB) has signed a contract with Airbus covering the firm order of seven A320neo aircraft plus three options, under the latest phase of its fleet modernization program.

Featuring a two class premium layout, the aircraft will be operated on the airline’s regional network linking Bandar Seri Begawan with destinations across Asia. The aircraft will be powered by Pratt & Whitney PW1100G-JM engines.“RB has successfully operated the A320 family of aircraft since 2003. We are confident this latest NEO version will bring even greater levels of efficiency, with 15 per cent less fuel and a significantly reduced impact on the environment. At the same time, the new aircraft will offer unmatched levels of in-flight comfort, longer flying range and significant underfloor cargo capability”, said Dermot Mannion, Deputy Chairman of RB.

“We are pleased that Royal Brunei Airlines has reaffirmed its commitment to the A320 Family,” said John Leahy, Airbus Chief Operating Officer, Customers. “The order once again underscores the leading position of the A320neo in the single aisle market. We look forward to seeing the eco-efficient NEO fly in the colours of Royal Brunei Airlines.”

"Royal Brunei is focused on providing its customers a state-of-the-art fleet, and we are proud they have selected Pratt & Whitney PW1100G-JM engines to power their new A320neo family," said Dave Brantner, president, Pratt & Whitney Commercial Engines. "We are confident that our Geared Turbofan engines will meet the high standards Royal Brunei has set for itself."
