Gulf Air adds for GP

The Formula 1 season 2022 gets under way on Sunday 20 March at Bahrain.

Gulf Air currently operates double daily flights from Heathrow, a direct route that has been part of the airline’s network since 1970.

The airline has added an extra daily flight on 16, 17, 21 and 22 March to operate three daily services during the F1 Gulf Air Bahrain Grand Prix weekend taking place on 18–20 March.

Passengers with a valid F1 ticket and flying on Gulf Air flights to Bahrain from Heathrow during this period will receive free lounge access at Heathrow and at Bahrain International Airport.

On behalf of the Bahrain International Circuit, Shaikh Salman bin Isa Al Khalifa, Chief Executive, commented: “In recent weeks we have seen great demand for tickets and travel packages from international fans, including from the UK. We are thankful to our partners at Gulf Air for adding to their capacity and we look forward to fans joining us from all over the world to celebrate the beginning of this great new era for the sport”.

The 2022 race will usher in a new era for F1, following possibly the biggest revolution of rules in the history of the sport. As the opening race of the season, it will be the first opportunity for F1 fans around the world to witness the new cars in action. It also follows the incredible excitement of the 2021 season, which was the closest in living memory.
