Royal Brunei Airlines: 737 MAX and A320neo families are blurring lines for airline models and routes

Royal Brunei Airlines deputy chairman Dermot Mannion, speaking at the CAPA Asia Aviation Summit, said (23-Nov-2015) the development of the Boeing 737 MAX and A320neo families is blurring the lines for airline models and route types. Mr Mannion explained: "The MAXs and neos can go up to six hours and that's good news for us operating in small markets," adding: "We can operate routes with a MAX or neo that we couldn't previously do with a widebody aircraft."
