A few airport reviews from the archives
by Leah & Paul
"My boyfriend and I visited Brunei on route to Borneo in December 05. Although it is a nice and friendly country we found Brunei a little dull so on our way back to Singapore from Borneo we decided to stay in the airport rather than fork out 30 for a taxi into Bandar. A nice lady in the stolen luggage office looked after our bags for us overnight so we didn't have to cart them round the airport and a security guard let us stroll back into the departure lounge to sleep. The seating there is padded and arm rest free so was good to stretch out on and there are no flight between about 10pm (all the shops shut at 8pm) and about 6am so it's pretty quiet apart from the cleaners. There is a tv but it's mostly hindi films and NYPD blue reruns so not a way to pass the time. I slept for about 7 hours undisturbed, apart from the cleaner when he turned off the tv and re covered my boyfriend with a towel he was using as a blanket, the showers are located downstairs by the toilets and are clean (as is the whole airport). They also have rest rooms you can rent down there if you don't fancy sleeping on a bench "
so, just how bad is this airport?
