Gulf Air renews Unilode partnership for 10 more years

Gulf Air, the national carrier of the Kingdom of Bahrain and the World’s Most Improved Airline 2022, has renewed its unit load device (ULD) management partnership deal with Unilode Aviation Solutions, a market leader in the outsourced ULD management, repair and digital services sector, for another 10 years.

The renewed agreement will see Unilode continue to supply pallets, and lighter weight and more durable AKE containers from its ULD pool to Gulf Air for increased synergies and sustainability benefits.

Unilode will also provide speciality containers, which will be dedicated for Gulf Air’s exclusive use.

Since then, the company has supported the Bahraini flag carrier’s significant fleet growth and route network extension with global ULD supply, management, maintenance and digital services as well as accessories management, led by a dedicated local customer success management team and supported by the global Operations Control Centre.

Gulf Air CEO Captain Waleed Al Alawi said: "In the past 10 years of our close cooperation, Unilode has demonstrated excellent customer-centric attitude and met all our expectations, therefore we are delighted to continue working together with our valued partner."
