We left Dubai 40 minutes after arriving just enough time for 2 smokes, 2 security checks and some exercise. Back on the plane for another nine and a half hours. Surprisingly it wasn't that bad, once I had workout how to turn the chair into a bed, I passed out for most of the journey. Food was good as was the attentiveness of the cabin staff.
Landed around 8.30 local time and passed through customs and immigration seamlessly. Its worth noting that Brunei is a dry country BUT you are allowed to bring in one bottle of spirits if you declare it, are not a muslim and are above the drinking age. I only found this out once I got the immigration forms, which was to late as I was working on the premise that you couldn't bring any alcohol into the country.
Meet by our driver and whisked off to the hotel, we check in and are told that our rooms will not be ready for about an hour. On reflection, having been here for a couple of days, this is odd, the hotel isn't exactly full and they have staff everywhere. After a short wait our room and a coffee in the lounge we are shown to our rooms and I can have a shower.
