Royal Brunei names new CE
Royal Brunei Airlines announced acting CE and deputy chairman Dermot Mannion will leave “shortly, on completion of his term of office,” and will be succeeded by CCO Karam Chand. Chand has been with Royal Brunei for more than 3 years, and was previously employed by Virgin Australia and Fiji Airways, formerly Air Pacific. Chand said Royal Brunei is in a good position to “fly the flag higher on the strong legacy left by [Mannion],” and will use its newly upgraded 10-strong fleet of new aircraft for expanding its network. Chand cited destinations such as Brisbane, Perth, India, Beijing, and Tokyo as potential destinations. The carrier is scheduled to take delivery of its first Airbus A320neos in 2018, from an order of up to 10 placed in 2014. <br/>
