Gulf Air, the national airline of the Kingdom of Bahrain, Oman and the United Arab Emirates (UAE), harnessed its resources to assist passengers following the diversion of flights during abnormal weather conditions and strong winds on the morning of March 13. This resulted in a number of flights being diverted to destinations around the Gulf, including Doha, Muscat and Abu Dhabi.
Founded in 1950, Gulf Air is the only pan Gulf carrier in the region. The airline’s network stretches from Europe to Asia and covers 43 cities in 32 countries. The fleet is one of the most modern in the Middle East and comprises 30 aircraft. The airline is in its first year of a three-year strategic recovery program, headed by President & Chief Executive James Hogan. — (menareport.com)
