Bahrain: Gulf Air and Emirates Activate Codeshare Agreement

Gulf Air, the national carrier of the Kingdom, announced the commencement of its codeshare agreement with Emirates as part of a strategic partnership between the two carriers.

In the initial phase, Gulf Air will apply its code to a number of Emirates destinations in Europe and the Far East, thereby increasing the number of destinations for Gulf Air customers travelling from its network. Destinations include Denpasar Bali, Indonesia; Brazil; Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam; and the Czech Republic.

The airline recently announced the operation of summer flights to Bodrum in the Republic of Turkey and an increase in the number of flights to Manchester, UK; Manila, Philippines; and Bangkok, Thailand to meet increased demand.

Customers can combine ticketing, check-in and baggage transfers, and benefit from competitive fares, while premium passengers will also gain access to Emirates lounges in Dubai. Tickets are now available for booking.
