Gulf Air plans to start daily Milan flights
Rome: Gulf Air announced its plans to begin operating a year-round daily non-stop service between Bahrain and Milan starting from July.
The announcement, made during a business lunch organised by the Bahrain Economic Development Board (EDB), is part of Gulf Air’s expansion strategy and coincides with the official opening of Bahrain’s embassy in Rome.
Gulf Air will also begin operating its first Airbus A321neo aircraft, serving a number of European destinations, including Milan.
The new aircraft will feature flatbed seats and a state-of-the-art inflight entertainment system.
In addition, 2020 will see Gulf Air take delivery of three Boeing 787-9 Dreamliners.
The three new aircraft, which bring the total number of Dreamliners operated by Gulf Air to 10, is a clear demonstration of the airline’s commitment to its fleet modernisation programme.
Gulf Air will also introduce new seasonal routes to Mykonos, Munich, Malaga, Nice and Salalah starting from the summer of 2020, and a new daily nonstop flight to Kuala Lumpur from July strengthening international connectivity and boosting tourism.
