KUALA LUMPUR : GallopAir, a new Brunei-based airline, is in talks with potential investors and plans to launch operations after taking delivery of its first Chinese aircraft in the second half of next year, its chief executive told Reuters.
Chi said the airline, owned by Chinese businessman Yang Qiang, expects to take delivery of its first ARJ21 aircraft in the third quarter of 2024 pending regulatory approvals. GallopAir will start with short-haul flights and then expand to medium-haul routes serving Southeast Asia, North Asia and the Southwest Pacific regions, he said.
It will be the second Brunei-based airline operator after national carrier Royal Brunei Airlines when it commences operations.
