NATIONAL carrier Royal Brunei Airlines (RB) will be re-entering the Japanese market in November, following yesterday’s signing of a codeshare agreement with Hong Kong Airlines.
Under the codeshare agreement, Hong Kong Airlines ‘HX’ code will be placed on RB daily flights between Hong Kong and Bandar Seri Begawan. At the same time, RB will place its ‘BI’ code on Hong Kong Airlines daily flights between Hong Kong and onwards to Tokyo.
RB Chief Executive Officer Karam Chand said the agreement will shorten the travelling time between Brunei and Tokyo.
