Gulf Air and UK

Manchester to Bahrain.

Gulf Air is again expanding and has announced that flights from the tiny kingdom of Bahrain, physically attached to Saudi Arabia, to Milan, Rome and Nice this summer will be served by the airline’s new Airbus A321neo. #####

Two weekly rotations to Rome and Nice and five weekly services to Milan are planned , while Manchester will be connected twice weekly by the airline’s flagship Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner. In addition to the new destinations launching during the summer season, the airline will resume its operations to Mykonos and Santorini in Greece, Malaga in Spain, Sharm Al Shaikh and Alexandria in Egypt, and Salalah in Oman.

Gulf Air’s Acting Chief Executive Officer, Captain Waleed Al Alawi, said: “These destinations have been on our horizon and as travel bounces back to normalcy, we knew it was the right time to launch our new routes for our passengers. Our network keeps adding popular boutique destinations that are favourite to many tourists and families in the Kingdom of Bahrain and the region especially as demand for travel grows in a healthy accelerated way towards the summer holidays”.

It was in 2019 that the airline announced its “boutique business model concept” reinforcing its focus on product and customer experience.  Gulf Air likes to differentiate itself as a boutique airline giving it a competitive advantage with its fleet modernization strategy, new Falcon Gold class offering upgraded economy class experience, more destinations and its presence in the new terminal at Bahrain International Airport.
