Voice of Travelers to Bandar Seri Begawan

Athira from Malaysia

Hi, I'm Athira from Putra Jaya. I bought my ticket to Bandar Seri Begawan from Kuala Lumpur with Air Asia. I was always interested in Brunei as it is Malaysia's neighbour. Although I bought a ticket with a budget airline, the service was better than expected. The staff were exceptional and the plane was in good shape. I read that Air Asia won the award for the best low cost carrier in 2016. I would buy Air Asia air tickets again for sure. Especially since my Bandar Seri Begawan ticket cost so little. The plane I flew in looked really impressive because it was painted like a Malaysian Flag. I haven't seen a plane decorated like that before. Bandar Seri Begawan was an interesting place to visit, with it's stunning mosques and interesting museums. I Laos went on a bit of a shopping spree while in Bandar Seri Begawan.

Jasper from The Philippines

Hi, I'm Jasper from Manila. I flew to Bandar Seri Begawan with Air Brunei and was pleased with the experience. The website is modern and easy to navigate. I booked my ticket online and was able to check the details of my ticket reservation at a later date with ease. I opted for a one way ticket because I would be staying in Bandar Seri Begawan for a long period for work reasons. I am not yet sure when I will return to The Philippines, but I think I will get an Air Brunei ticket again as I was really impressed with the professional service. So far I am finding Bandar Seri Begawan an interesting place to stay and the people here approachable and polite.
